REPRODUCTIVE ISOLATION AND LOCAL ADAPTATION QUANTIFIED FOR A CHROMOSOME INVERSION IN A MALARIA MOSQUITO
29 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Chromosome inversions have long been thought to be involved in speciation and local adaptation. We have little quantitative information, however, about the effects that inversion polymorphisms have on reproductive isolation and viability. Here we provide the first estimates from any organism for the total amount of reproductive isolation associated with an inversion segregating in natural populations. We sampled...
