Hybridization and speciation

Richard J. Abbott, +38 more
TL;DR: A perspective on the context and evolutionary significance of hybridization during speciation is offered, highlighting issues of current interest and debate and suggesting that the Dobzhansky–Muller model of hybrid incompatibilities requires a broader interpretation.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the origin of species by sympatric speciation

TL;DR: This work uses multilocus genetics to describe sexual reproduction in an individual-based model and considers the evolution of assortative mating, which leads to reproductive isolation between ecologically diverging subpopulations and conforms well with mounting empirical evidence for the sympatric origin of many species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dynamical theory of coevolution: a derivation from stochastic ecological processes

TL;DR: It is shown that the coevolutionary dynamic can be envisaged as a directed random walk in the community's trait space and a quantitative description of this stochastic process in terms of a master equation is derived.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maturation trends indicative of rapid evolution preceded the collapse of northern cod

TL;DR: It is shown that, up until the moratorium, the life history of northern cod continually shifted towards maturation at earlier ages and smaller sizes, which strongly suggests fisheries-induced evolution of maturation patterns in the direction predicted by theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Speciation along environmental gradients

TL;DR: It is shown that along an environmental gradient, evolutionary branching can occur much more easily than in non-spatial models, and this facilitation is most pronounced for gradients of intermediate slope.
