Starvation-associated genome restructuring can lead to reproductive isolation in yeast. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Knowledge of the mechanisms that lead to reproductive isolation is essential for understanding population structure and speciation. While several models have been advanced to explain post-mating reproductive isolation, experimental data supporting most ...

Promoting Reproductive Isolation Through Diversity in On-line Collective Robotics [PDF]
, 2021 International audienceWe present a behavioral diversity selection scheme that favors reproductive isolation to promote the learning of multiple task in on-line embodied evolutionary robotics (EER).

Ecology and Evolution, 2021 The degree to which loci promoting reproductive isolation cluster in the genome—that is, the genetic architecture of reproductive isolation—can influence the tempo and mode of speciation.

MODELS OF EVOLUTION OF REPRODUCTIVE ISOLATION [PDF]
Genetics, 1983 ABSTRACT Mathematical models are presented for the evolution of postmating and premating reproductive isolation. In the case of postmating isolation it is assumed that hybrid sterility or inviability is caused by incompatibility of alleles at one or two loci, and evolution of reproductive isolation occurs by random fixation of different ...

Genomic islands of speciation in Anopheles gambiae. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2005 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 two sympatric, partially isolated subtaxa known as M form and S form ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The evolution of reproductive isolation lies at the heart of understanding the process of speciation. Of particular interest is the relationship between pre‐ and postzygotic reproductive isolation, and the genetic architecture of traits that contribute ...

The evolution of reproductive isolation in Daphnia [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Abstract Background The process by which populations evolve to become new species involves the emergence of various reproductive isolating barriers (RIB). Despite major advancements in understanding this complex process, very little is known about the order in which RIBs evolve or their relative contribution to the total restriction of gene flow during

Reproductive isolation in Saccharomyces [PDF]
Heredity, 2008 Although speciation is one of the most interesting processes in evolution, the underlying causes of reproductive isolation are only partially understood in a few species. This review summarizes the results of many experiments on the reproductive isolation between yeast species of the Saccharomyces sensu stricto group. Hybrids between these species form

Reproductive isolation of hybrid populations driven by genetic incompatibilities. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2015 Despite its role in homogenizing populations, hybridization has also been proposed as a means to generate new species. The conceptual basis for this idea is that hybridization can result in novel phenotypes through recombination between the parental ...
