Chromosomal speciation of humans and chimpanzees revisited: studies of DNA divergence within inverted regions.

Cytogenetic and genome research - 1 Jan 2007

Szamalek J M, Cooper D N, Hoegel J, Hameister H, Kehrer-Sawatzki H

Abstract excerpt

The human and chimpanzee karyotypes are distinguishable in terms of nine pericentric inversions. According to the recombination suppression model of speciation, these inversions could have promoted the process of parapatric speciation between hominoid populations ancestral to chimpanzees and humans. Were recombination suppression to have occurred in inversion heterozygotes, gene flow would have been reduced,...
