Genetic architecture of hybrid male sterility in Drosophila: analysis of intraspecies variation for interspecies isolation.

PloS one - 27 Aug 2008

Reed Laura K, LaFlamme Brooke A, Markow Therese A

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The genetic basis of postzygotic isolation is a central puzzle in evolutionary biology. Evolutionary forces causing hybrid sterility or inviability act on the responsible genes while they still are polymorphic, thus we have to study these traits as they arise, before isolation is complete. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Isofemale strains of D. mojavensis vary significantly in their production of...
