The importance of intrinsic postzygotic barriers throughout the speciation process
Intrinsic postzygotic barriers can play an important and multifaceted role in speciation, but
their contribution is often thought to be reserved to the final stages of the speciation process …

Hybrid speciation
J Mallet - Nature, 2007 - nature.com
Botanists have long believed that hybrid speciation is important, especially after
chromosomal doubling (allopolyploidy). Until recently, hybridization was not thought to play …

Towards the completion of speciation: the evolution of reproductive isolation beyond the first barriers
Speciation, that is, the evolution of reproductive barriers eventually leading to complete
isolation, is a crucial process generating biodiversity. Recent work has contributed much to …

A widespread chromosomal inversion polymorphism contributes to a major life-history transition, local adaptation, and reproductive isolation
The role of chromosomal inversions in adaptation and speciation is controversial.
Historically, inversions were thought to contribute to these processes either by directly …

Chromosome inversions, local adaptation and speciation
We study the evolution of inversions that capture locally adapted alleles when two
populations are exchanging migrants or hybridizing. By suppressing recombination between …

Genomic Islands of Speciation in Anopheles gambiae
The African malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (A. gambiae), provides a
unique opportunity to study the evolution of reproductive isolation because it is divided into …

On the scent of speciation: the chemosensory system and its role in premating isolation
Chemosensory speciation is characterized by the evolution of barriers to genetic exchange
that involve chemosensory systems and chemical signals. Here, we review some …

[LIVRO][B] Evolution's wedge: competition and the origins of diversity
Evolutionary biology has long sought to explain how new traits and new species arise.
Darwin maintained that competition is key to understanding this biodiversity and held that …

Eukaryotic microbes, species recognition and the geographic limits of species: examples from the kingdom Fungi
The claim that eukaryotic micro-organisms have global geographic ranges, constituting a
significant departure from the situation with macro-organisms, has been supported by …
