Experimental hybridization and reproductive isolation between two sympatric species of tephritid fruit flies in the Anastrepha fraterculus species group [PDF]
Among tephritid fruit flies, hybridzation has been found to produce local adaptationand speciation, and in the case of pest species, induce behavioral and ecological alterations that can adversely impact efficient pest management. The fraterculus species

Interspecific Hybridization among Mycobacteria [PDF]
EXPERIMENTS conducted in the first part of this work showed that a high degree of streptomycin resistance can be transmitted to M. phlei when a streptomycin-sensitive strain of this micro-organism and a streptomycin-resistant BCG strain of M. tuberculosis are cultured together in ‘Tween’ liquid medium.

Genome composition of 'Elatior'-begonias hybrids analyzed by genomic in situ hybridisation [PDF]
Interspecific hybridization of various tuberous Begonia species hybrids with Begonia socotrana results in so-called 'Elatior'-begonias hybrids (B. x hiemalis Fotsch).

Host adaptation and speciation through hybridization and polyploidy in Phytophthora. [PDF]
It is becoming increasingly evident that interspecific hybridization is a common event in phytophthora evolution. Yet, the fundamental processes underlying interspecific hybridization and the consequences for its ecological fitness and distribution are ...

Phylogenetic relationships in Betula (Betulaceae) based on AFLP markers [PDF]
The genus Betula comprises various species in boreal and temperate climate zones of the Northern Hemisphere. The taxonomy of Betula is controversial and complicated by parallel evolution of morphological traits, polyploidization events, and extensive ...

Interspecific Hybridization Between Cyclic Parthenogens [PDF]
Taxonomic work has suggested that interspecific hybrids are common in freshwater rotifers and cladocerans. Hybrids within the cladoceran genera Bosmina and Daphnia are apparently common in the large lakes of western Europe (Lieder 1956, 1983a, 1983b; Einsle, 1966, 1978).

Lotus tenuis x L. corniculatus interspecific hybridization as a means to breed bloat-safe pastures and gain insight into the genetic control of proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in legumes [PDF]
Background: Proanthocyanidins (PAs) are secondary metabolites that strongly affect plant quality traits. The concentration and the structure of these metabolites influence the palatability and nutritional value of forage legumes. Hence, modulating PAs in
