A lethal mitonuclear incompatibility in complex I of natural hybrids
The evolution of reproductive barriers is the first step in the formation of new species and
can help us understand the diversification of life on Earth. These reproductive barriers often …

Swordtail fish hybrids reveal that genome evolution is surprisingly predictable after initial hybridization
Over the past 2 decades, biologists have come to appreciate that hybridization, or genetic
exchange between distinct lineages, is remarkably common—not just in particular lineages …

Evidence that genomic incompatibilities and other multilocus processes impact hybrid fitness in a rattlesnake hybrid zone
Hybrid zones provide valuable opportunities to understand the genomic mechanisms that
promote speciation by providing insight into factors involved in intermediate stages of …

Assortative mating enhances postzygotic barriers to gene flow via ancestry bundling
Hybridization and subsequent genetic introgression are now known to be common features
of the histories of many species, including our own. Following hybridization, selection often …

Predictability and parallelism in the contemporary evolution of hybrid genomes
Hybridization between species is widespread across the tree of life. As a result, many
species, including our own, harbor regions of their genome derived from hybridization …

Complex hybridization between deeply diverged fish species in a disturbed ecosystem
Over the past two decades researchers have documented the extent of natural hybridization
between closely related species using genomic tools. Many species across the tree of life …

Replicate contact zones suggest a limited role of plumage in reproductive isolation among subspecies of the variable seedeater (Sporophila corvina)
After establishing secondary contact, recently diverged populations may remain
reproductively isolated or may hybridize to a varying extent depending on factors such as …

Recent secondary contact, genome-wide admixture, and asymmetric introgression of neo-sex chromosomes between two Pacific island bird species
Secondary contact between closely related taxa represents a “moment of truth” for
speciation—an opportunity to test the efficacy of reproductive isolation that evolved in …

Differentiating mechanism from outcome for ancestry-assortative mating in admixed human populations
Population genetic theory, and the empirical methods built upon it, often assume that
individuals pair randomly for reproduction. However, natural populations frequently violate …
