The occurrence of rare or novel alleles has been documented in at least 23 different hybrid zones spanning vertebrate and invertebrate taxa. As most novel alleles either occur at high frequencies in hybrid populations or are exclusively restricted to hybrids, it has seemed probable that hybridization has a role in their origin; however, the molecular nature of these novel alleles and the mechanisms responsible...
