Long-term experimental hybrid swarms between nearly incompatible Tigriopus californicus populations: persistent fitness problems and assimilation by the superior population
2012-04-01
Abstract excerpt
For the intertidal copepod Tigriopus californicus, outbreeding depression for a variety of fitness measures is typically observed in early-generation interpopulation hybrids. We examined both controlled crosses and long-term, freely mating experimental hybrid swarms composed of individuals from Baja California (Mexico) populations Playa Altamira and Punta Morro. In controlled crosses, F1 and F2 hybrids showed larg...
