Evolution of host specificity drives reproductive isolation among RNA viruses.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Nov 2007

Duffy Siobain, Burch Christina L, Turner Paul E

Abstract excerpt

Ecological speciation hypotheses claim that assortative mating evolves as a consequence of divergent natural selection for ecologically important traits. Reproductive isolation is expected to be particularly likely to evolve by this mechanism in species such as phytophagous insects that mate in the habitats in which they eat. We tested this expectation by monitoring the evolution of reproductive isolation in...
