Brazilian Journal of BiologyThe goal of conservation biology should be related to the preservation of species and also to the evolutionary and ecological processes that were responsible to form them and that are still acting. We review the conservation status of the species of tuco-

HYBRID ZONES AND REPRODUCTIVE ISOLATION [PDF]
Evolution, 1965 The interpretation of hybrid zones remains one of the most difficult of taxonomic problems, despite the striking advances in systematics of recent decades. Mayr (1963: 496) selected sexual isolation, hybrid fertility, and developmental compatibility as the only criteria that will render possible unequivocal decisions (one species or two) in the case of

Ants exhibit asymmetric hybridization in a mosaic hybrid zone [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2016 Abstract Research on hybridization between species provides unparalleled insights into the pre‐ and postzygotic isolating mechanisms that drive speciation. In social organisms, colony‐level incompatibilities may provide additional reproductive barriers not present in solitary species, and hybrid zones offer an ...

Insect Hybridization and Climate Change
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Contemporary global change is altering ecosystems at an unprecedented pace and scale. This critical period is a crisis for biodiversity, but the perturbations caused by global environmental change also offer new opportunities to study the evolution of ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Although hybridization frequently occurs among plant species, hybrid zones of divergent lineages formed at species boundaries are less common and may not be apparent in later generations of hybrids with more parental‐like phenotypes, as a consequence of ...

MITOCHONDRIAL INHERITANCE PATTERNS ACROSS A COTTONWOOD HYBRID ZONE: CYTONUCLEAR DISEQUILIBRIA AND HYBRID ZONE DYNAMICS [PDF]
Evolution, 1991 In this study we examine the cytoplasmic inheritance patterns of an interspecific hybridizing population of Fremont and narrowleaf cottonwoods, using mitochondrial DNA. Three mitochondrial probes showing polymorphisms were used to distinguish between trees of known nuclear inheritance.

Charged Hybrid Microstructures in Transparent Thin-Film ITO Traps: Localization and Optical Control
Surfaces, 2023 In the present study, we propose a new transparent thin-film ITO surface radio-frequency (RF) trap. Charged hybrid microstructures were localized in the developed ITO trap.

The Phenetics and Ecology of a Narrow Hybrid Zone [PDF]
Evolution, 1973 Hybrid zones between races and semispecies hold considerable interest for evolutionary biology. They may be examined in regard to the selection pressures that adapt each population to its geographic range (Blair, 1943). The width and age of the hybrid zone and the mechanisms which restrict gene flow across it are of particular relevance to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
