Population Genetics of a Polyploid: Is There Hybridization Between Lineages of Hyla versicolor? [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2002 Several studies have demonstrated that polyploid species can form recurrently from their progenitors, but few studies have evaluated gene flow between the resultant polyploid lineages. Here we examine the possibility of hybridization between lineages of the tetraploid common gray treefrog (Hyla versicolor).

Isolation and identification of a novel rabies virus lineage in China with natural recombinant nucleoprotein gene. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Rabies virus (RABV) causes severe neurological disease and death. As an important mechanism for generating genetic diversity in viruses, homologous recombination can lead to the emergence of novel virus strains with increased virulence and changed host ...

Hybridization and the origin of new yeast lineages
FEMS Yeast Research, 2020 ABSTRACTHybrids originate from the mating of two diverged organisms, resulting in novel lineages that have chimeric genomes. Hybrids may exhibit unique phenotypic traits that are not necessarily intermediate between those present in the progenitors. These unique traits may enable them to thrive in new environments.

Sex, subdivision, and domestic dispersal of Trypanosoma cruzi lineage I in southern Ecuador. [PDF]
, 2010 BACKGROUND: Molecular epidemiology at the community level has an important guiding role in zoonotic disease control programmes where genetic markers are suitably variable to unravel the dynamics of local transmission. We evaluated the molecular diversity

Cis-by-Trans regulatory divergence causes the asymmetric lethal effects of an ancestral hybrid incompatibility gene. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 The Dobzhansky and Muller (D-M) model explains the evolution of hybrid incompatibility (HI) through the interaction between lineage-specific derived alleles at two or more loci. In agreement with the expectation that HI results from functional divergence,

Natural hybridization between divergent lineages in a selfing hermaphroditic fish [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2018 By definition, mating between individuals is infrequent in highly selfing organisms, and so too, therefore, hybridization should be rare between genetically divergent lineages in predominantly self-fertilizing species. Notwithstanding these expectations, here we report a remarkable case of natural hybridization between highly diverged phylogeographic ...

A six nuclear gene phylogeny of Citrus (Rutaceae) taking into account hybridization and lineage sorting. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: Genus Citrus (Rutaceae) comprises many important cultivated species that generally hybridize easily. Phylogenetic study of a group showing extensive hybridization is challenging.

The genomic mosaicism of hybrid speciation [PDF]
, 2017 Hybridization is widespread in nature and, in some instances, can result in the formation of a new hybrid species. We investigate the genetic foundation of this poorly understood process through whole-genome analysis of the hybrid Italian sparrow and its

Cryptic and extensive hybridization between ancient lineages of American crows [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2018 Abstract Most species and therefore most hybrid zones have historically been defined using phenotypic characters. However, both speciation and hybridization can occur with negligible morphological differentiation.
