Abstract excerpt
Hybrid incompatibility (including sterility, lethality, and less extreme negative effects) interests evolutionary biologists because of its role in speciation as a reproductive isolating barrier. It also has unusual genetic properties, being mainly due to interactions between at least two genes. Recent studies have identified some of the interacting genes that underlie hybrid incompatibility. These genes...
