Smallness of the number of incompatibility loci can facilitate parapatric speciation.

Journal of theoretical biology - 21 Sept 2016

Yamaguchi Ryo, Iwasa Yoh

Abstract excerpt

We studied the time to speciation by geographic isolation for a species living on two islands connected by infrequent migration. Assumptions were that incompatibility was controlled by a finite number of quantitative loci, and individuals differing in loci of more than some threshold fraction do not mix genetically with each other. We also assumed sexual haploid species, each population being nearly monomorphic,...
