Genic Heterozygosity and Rate of Speciation
-The hypothesis is proposed that mean level of heterozygosity is functionally related to rate of speciation in evolutionary phylads. Under this hypothesis, phylads which speciate more rapidly do so because of increased level of within-species genetic variability which is then available to conversion to species differences under appropriate ecological or environmental conditions. An important co...
متن کاملReview. The genic view of plant speciation: recent progress and emerging questions.
The genic view of the process of speciation is based on the notion that species isolation may be achieved by a modest number of genes. Although great strides have been made to characterize 'speciation genes' in some groups of animals, little is known about the nature of genic barriers to gene flow in plants. We review recent progress in the characterization of genic species barriers in plants w...
متن کاملA neutral view of the evolving genomic architecture of speciation
Analyses of genomewide polymorphism data have begun to shed light on speciation and adaptation. Genome scans to identify regions of the genome that are unusually different between populations or species, possibly due to divergent natural or sexual selection, are widespread in speciation genomics. Theoretical and empirical work suggests that such outlier regions may grow faster than linearly dur...
متن کاملA genomic view of introgression and hybrid speciation.
Hybridization in plants and animals is more common and has more complex outcomes than previously realized. Genome-wide analyses of introgression in organisms ranging from oaks to sunflowers to fruit flies show that a substantial fraction of their genomes are permeable to alleles from related species. Hybridization can lead to rapid genomic changes, including chromosomal rearrangements, genome e...
متن کاملOBE3 and WUS Interaction in Shoot Meristem Stem Cell Regulation
The stem cells in the shoot apical meristem (SAM) are the origin of all above ground tissues in plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, shoot meristem stem cells are maintained by the homeobox transcription factor gene WUS (WUSCHEL) that is expressed in cells of the organizing center underneath the stem cells. In order to identify factors that operate together with WUS in stem cell maintenance, we per...
