Recombination rate variation and speciation: theoretical predictions and empirical results from rabbits and mice.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 5 Feb 2012

Nachman Michael W, Payseur Bret A

Abstract excerpt

Recently diverged taxa may continue to exchange genes. A number of models of speciation with gene flow propose that the frequency of gene exchange will be lower in genomic regions of low recombination and that these regions will therefore be more differentiated. However, several population-genetic models that focus on selection at linked sites also predict greater differentiation in regions of low recombination...
