Gene flow across a hybrid zone maintained by a weak heterogametic incompatibility and positive selection of incompatible alleles.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Hybridization between incipient species is more likely to produce sterile or inviable F(1) offspring in the heterogametic (XY or ZW) sex than in the homogametic (XX or ZZ) sex, a phenomenon known as Haldane's rule. Population dynamics associated with Haldane's rule may play an important role in early speciation of sexually reproducing organisms. The dynamics of the hybrid zone maintained by incomplete hybrid...
