Abstract excerpt
Given the coevolution process occurring between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes, the effects of introgressive hybridization remain puzzling. In this study, we take advantage of the natural co-occurrence of two biotypes bearing a similar nuclear genome (Chrosomus eos) but harbouring mitochondria from different species (wild type: C. eos; cybrids: Chrosomus neogaeus) to determine the extent of phenotype changes...
