Abstract excerpt
The tempo, mode, and geography of allopolyploid speciation are influenced by natural variation in the ability of parental species to express postzygotic reproductive phenotypes that affect hybrid fertility. To shed light on the impact of such natural variations, we used allohexaploid Triticum aestivum wheats' evolution as a model and analyzed the geographic and phylogenetic distributions of Aegilops tauschii...
