The large-X effect in plants: increased species divergence and reduced gene flow on the Silene X-chromosome.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2016

Hu Xin-Sheng, Filatov Dmitry A

Abstract excerpt

The disproportionately large involvement of the X-chromosome in the isolation of closely related species (the large-X effect) has been reported for many animals, where X-linked genes are mostly hemizygous in the heterogametic sex. The expression of deleterious recessive mutations is thought to drive the frequent involvement of the X-chromosome in hybrid sterility, as well as to reduce interspecific gene flow for...
