Can reinforcement complete speciation?

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jan 2012

Bank Claudia, Hermisson Joachim, Kirkpatrick Mark

Abstract excerpt

Hybridization is common in nature, even between "good" species. This observation poses the question of why reinforcement is not always successful in leading to the evolution of complete reproductive isolation. To study this question, we developed a new "quasi-linkage disequilibrium" (QLD) approximation to obtain the first analytic results for the evolution of modifiers that increase mate discrimination against...
