The aim of this study is to investigate the evolution of intrinsic postzygotic isolation within and between populations of Mimulus guttatus and Mimulus nasutus. We made 17 intraspecific and interspecific crosses, across a wide geographical scale. We examined the seed germination success and pollen fertility of reciprocal F1 and F2 hybrids and their pure-species parents, and used biometrical genetic tests to distinguish among alternative models of inheritance. Hybrid seed inviability was sporadic in both interspecific and intraspecific crosses. For several crosses, Dobzhansky–Muller incompatibilities involving nuclear genes were implicated, while two interspecific crosses revealed evidence of cytonuclear interactions. Reduced hybrid pollen fertility was found to be greatly influenced by Dobzhansky–Muller incompatibilities in five out of six intraspecific crosses and nine out of 11 interspecific crosses. Cytonuclear incompatibilities reduced hybrid fitness in only one intraspecific and one interspecific cross. This study suggests that intrinsic postzygotic isolation is common in hybrids between these Mimulus species, yet the particular hybrid incompatibilities responsible for effecting this isolation differ among the populations tested. Hence, we conclude that they evolve and spread only at the local scale. 相似文献

Genetic diversity and genetic differentiation in Daphnia metapopulations with subpopulations of known age
下载免费PDF全文

If colonization of empty habitat patches causes genetic bottlenecks, freshly founded, young populations should be genetically less diverse than older ones that may have experienced successive rounds of immigration. This can be studied in metapopulations with subpopulations of known age. We studied allozyme variation in metapopulations of two species of water fleas (Daphnia) in the skerry archipelago of southern Finland. These populations have been monitored since 1982. Screening 49 populations of D. longispina and 77 populations of D. magna, separated by distances of 1.5-2180 m, we found that local genetic diversity increased with population age whereas pairwise differentiation among pools decreased with population age. These patterns persisted even after controlling for several potentially confounding ecological variables, indicating that extinction and recolonization dynamics decrease local genetic diversity and increase genetic differentiation in these metapopulations by causing genetic bottlenecks during colonization. We suggest that the effect of these bottlenecks may be twofold, namely decreasing genetic diversity by random sampling and leading to population-wide inbreeding. Subsequent immigration then may not only introduce new genetic material, but also lead to the production of noninbred hybrids, selection for which may cause immigrant alleles to increase in frequency, thus leading to increased genetic diversity in older populations. 相似文献

Postzygotic reproductive isolation, based on negative interactions of genes, is a key aspect of divergent speciation in plants and animals. The effect of the interaction manifests as a drastic reduction in fitness of hybrids of the first of subsequent generations, which is expressed as hybrid lethality, weakness or sterility. Both simple genetic control of genetic incompatibility, which includes interallelic negative complementation or epistatic interactions of a limited number of genes, and more complex control, based on epistatic interactions of many genes, have been described in plants. It is thought that genes for reproductive isolation are nonuniformly distributed over the genome and are related to differential adaptation. The mosaic organization of the genomes in this respect provides restoration of their structural and functional integrity upon interspecies hybridization in natural conditions. Many cultured and wild plant species, in contrast to animals, were found to be polymorphic at genes controlling interspecies incompatibility. This fact facilitates genetic analysis of incompatibility and broadens perspectives in studying the structure, functions, and molecular evolution of the genes controlling postzygotic reproductive isolation, in view of the possible leading role of these genes in adaptive speciation. 相似文献

The process of speciation has puzzled scientists for decades, but only recently they have they been able to reveal the genetic basis of reproductive isolation. Much emphasis has been on Haldane's rule, the observation that the heterogametic sex often suffers more from hybridization than the homogametic sex. Most research on Haldane's rule has focused on diploid organisms with chromosomal sex determination. We argue that species lacking chromosomal sex determination, such as haplodiploids, also follow Haldane's rule and thus should be included in the definition of this rule. We provide evidence for Haldane's rule in Nasonia wasps and describe how haplodiploids can be used to test the different theories that have been proposed to explain Haldane's rule. We discuss how the faster-male and faster-X theories can shape speciation differently in haplodiploids compared to diploids. 相似文献

Summary A model has been developed which describes in mathematical terms the incidence of diapause in the spider miteTetranychus urticae under different photoperiodic regimens. The model has been derived from Beck's (1974a, b, 1975, 1976a) Dual System Theory of photoperiodic time measurement, by means of a number of essential alterations and modifications. The spider mite's model is composed of two hour-glass timers, one of which starts at lights-off and measures the length of the night, whereas the other is initiated both by the onset of the first hour-glass timer and by lights-on. This second hour-glass defines the time at which the first hour-glass is read off, the state of the first hour-glass at this particular time being decisive for the developmental alternative (diapause or nondiapause) to be determined. The model may be classified as a form of internal coincidence according to the terminology of Pittendrigh (1972), since it is based on the interaction of two internal systems rather than on the coincidence of light with a particular light-sensitive phase of the timing mechanism, as in the case of external coincidence (cf. Saunders, 1978). Good agreement is attained between diapause incidences predicted by this model and incidences observed in spider mites, both in the diapause induction response curve and in asymmetrical skeleton photoperiods.The authors are grateful to Dr. S.D. Beck for the program printout of the Dual System Theory put at their disposal. It is also a pleasure to thank Miss C. van Ruth and Mr. G. van de Berg for technical assistance, and Mr. H. Bos for drawing the figures. The investigations were supported by a grant to the first author from the Netherlands Organization for the Advancement of Pure Research (ZWO). 相似文献

Dominance, epistasis and the genetics of postzygotic isolation 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
The sterility and inviability of species hybrids can be explained by between-locus "Dobzhansky-Muller" incompatibilities: alleles that are fit on their "normal" genetic backgrounds sometimes lower fitness when brought together in hybrids. We present a model of two-locus incompatibilities that distinguishes among three types of hybrid interactions: those between heterozygous loci (H(0)), those between a heterozygous and a homozygous (or hemizygous) locus (H(1)), and those between homozygous loci (H(2)). We predict the relative fitnesses of hybrid genotypes by calculating the expected numbers of each type of incompatibility. We use this model to study Haldane's rule and the large effect of X chromosomes on postzygotic isolation. We show that the severity of H(0) vs. H(1) incompatibilities is key to understanding Haldane's rule, while the severity of H(1) vs. H(2) incompatibilities must also be considered to explain large X effects. Large X effects are not inevitable in backcross analyses but rather-like Haldane's rule-may often reflect the recessivity of alleles causing postzygotic isolation. We also consider incompatibilities involving the Y (or W) chromosome and maternal effects. Such incompatibilities are common in Drosophila species crosses, and their consequences in male- vs. female-heterogametic taxa may explain the pattern of exceptions to Haldane's rule. 相似文献

The nonlinear behavior of the Holling-Tanner predatory-prey differential equation system, employed by R.M. May to illustrate
the apparent robustness of Kolmogorov’s Theorem when applied to such exploitation systems, is re-examined by means of the
numerical bifurcation code AUTO 86 with model parameters chosen appropriately for a temperature-dependent mite interaction
on fruit trees. The most significant result of this analysis is that there exists a temperature range wherein multiple stable
states can occur, in direct violation of May’s interpretation of this system’s satisfaction of Kolmogorov’s Theorem: namely,
that linear stability predictions have global consequences. In particular these stable states consist of a focus (spiral point)
and a limit cycle separated from each other in the phase plane by an unstable limit cycle, all of which are associated with
the single community equilibrium point of the system. The ecological implications of such metastability, hysteresis, and threshold
behavior for the occurrence of outbreaks, the persistence of oscillations, the resiliency of the system, and the biological
control of mite populations are discussed. 相似文献

New species arise as reproductive isolation evolves between diverging populations. Here we review recent work in the genetics of postzygotic reproductive isolation-the sterility and inviability of species hybrids. Over the last few years, research has taken two new directions. First, we have begun to learn a good deal about the population genetic forces driving the evolution of postzygotic isolation. It has, for instance, become increasingly clear that conflict-driven processes, like sexual selection and meiotic drive, may contribute to the evolution of hybrid sterility. Second, we have begun to learn something about the identity and molecular characteristics of the actual genes causing hybrid problems. Although molecular genetic data are limited, early findings suggest that "speciation genes" correspond to loci having normal functions within species and that these loci sometimes diverge as a consequence of evolution in gene regulation. 相似文献

The chromosomes of 13 species of spider mites (Tetranychidae) are determined using the aceto-orcein squash technique in order to establish the haplo-diploid sex-determination. 12 species showed the existence of haploid and diploid eggs:Neotetranychus rubi (Trägårdh) with 7 and 14 chromosomes;Eurytetranychus buxi (Garman) with 5 and 10;Bryobia sarothamni (Geijskes),Eotetranychus tiliarium (Joh. Hermann) andE. carpini (Oudemans) with 4 and 8;Panonychus ulmi (Koch),Schizotetranychus schizopus (Zacher),Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi).Tetranychus hydrangeae Pritch. & Baker, T.pacificus McGregor,T. urticae Koch andT. cinnabarinus (Boisduval) with 3 and 6 chromosomes.The progeny of virgin females in 7 different species consisted of eggs with the haploid complement. One species was shown to be thelytokous, viz.Tetranycopsis horridus (Canestrini & Franzago), having a diploid number of 4 chromosomes. Some eggs of an inbred line ofT. urticae showed a patchwork quilt of odd polyploidy in embryonic tissue. 相似文献

Intracellular symbiotic bacteria belonging to the Cytophaga-Flavobacterium-Bacteroides lineage have recently been described and are widely distributed in arthropod species. The newly discovered bacteria, named Cardinium sp, cause the expression of various reproductive alterations in their arthropod hosts, including cytoplasmic incompatibility (CI), induction of parthenogenesis and feminization of genetic males. We detected 16S ribosomal DNA sequences similar to those of Cardinium from seven populations of five spider mite species, suggesting a broad distribution of infection of Cardinium in spider mites. To clarify the effect of Cardinium on the reproductive traits of the infected spider mites, infected mites were crossed with uninfected mites for each population. In one of the populations, Eotetranychus suginamensis, CI was induced when infected males were crossed with uninfected females. The other six populations of four species showed no reproductive abnormalities in the F(1) generation, but the possibility of CI effects in the F(2) generation remains to be tested. One species of spider mite, Tetranychus pueraricola, harbored both Cardinium and Wolbachia, but these symbionts seemed to have no effect on the reproduction of the host, even when the host was infected independently with each symbiont. 相似文献

The evolution of reproductive barriers is of central importance for speciation. Here, we investigated three components of postzygotic isolation-embryo mortality, hybrid inviability, and hybrid sterility-in a group of food-deceptive Mediterranean orchids from the genera Anacamptis, Neotinea, and Orchis. In these orchids, pollinator-mediated isolation is weak, which suggests that postpollination barriers exist. Based on crossing experiments and a literature survey, we found that embryo mortality caused complete reproductive isolation among 36.3% of the species pairs, and hybrid inviability affected 55.6% of the potentially hybridizing species pairs. Hybrid sterility was assessed experimentally for seven species pairs. A strong reduction of fertility in all investigated hybrids was found, together with clear differences between male and female components of hybrid sterility. Postzygotic isolation was found to evolve gradually with genetic divergence, and late postzygotic isolation (i.e., hybrid inviability and sterility) evolved faster than embryo mortality, which is an earlier postzygotic isolation stage. These results reveal that intrinsic postzygotic isolation strongly contributes to maintaining species boundaries among Mediterranean food-deceptive orchids while establishing a prominent role for these reproductive barriers in the early stage of species isolation. 相似文献

Factors inducing outbreaks of spider mites (Acari: Tetranychidae) following use of pyrethroid insecticides are reviewed. Differentials in direct toxicity between spider mites and phytoseiid (Acari: Phytoseiidae) predators provide one explanation. Wide variation exists between pyrethroids in their direct toxicity toTetranychus urticae. The acaricidal action of pyrethroids is largely controlled by the amount of irritancy or repellency induced by the respective chemicals. Laboratory assays for repellency reflect field results. Repellent activity induces spider-mite dispersal to either recolonise plants free of residues or leave the treated habitat. Pyrethroids may also affect reproduction and development rates. Residual activity is likely to vary, so limiting any general theory of spider-mite responses to pyrethroids. Variable responses to pyrethroids, strain variation and development of behavioural resistance also add complications to understanding outbreaks. Future research needs are identified. 相似文献

A major unresolved challenge of evolutionary biology is to determine the nature of the allelic variants of "speciation genes": those alleles whose interaction produces inviable or infertile interspecific hybrids but does not reduce fitness in pure species. Here we map quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting fertility of male hybrids between D. yakuba and its recently discovered sibling species, D. santomea. We mapped three to four X chromosome QTL and two autosomal QTL with large effects on the reduced fertility of D. yakuba and D. santomea backcross males. We observed epistasis between the X-linked QTL and also between the X and autosomal QTL. The X chromosome had a disproportionately large effect on hybrid sterility in both reciprocal backcross hybrids. However, the genetics of hybrid sterility differ between D. yakuba and D. santomea backcross males, both in terms of the magnitude of main effects and in the epistatic interactions. The QTL affecting hybrid fertility did not colocalize with QTL affecting sexual isolation in this species pair, but did colocalize with QTL affecting the marked difference in pigmentation between D. yakuba and D. santomea. These results provide the basis for future high-resolution mapping and ultimately, molecular cloning, of the interacting genes that contribute to hybrid sterility. 相似文献

In metapopulations, only a fraction of all local host populations may be infected with a given parasite species, and limited dispersal of parasites suggests that colonization of host populations by parasites may involve only a small number of parasite strains. Using hosts and parasites obtained from a natural metapopulation, we studied the evolutionary consequences of invasion by single strains of parasites in experimental populations of the cyclical parthenogen Daphnia magna. In two experiments, each spanning approximately one season, we monitored clone frequency changes in outdoor container populations consisting of 13 and 19 D. magna clones, respectively. The populations were either infected with single strains of the microsporidian parasites Octosporea bayeri or Ordospora colligata or left unparasitized. In both experiments, infection changed the representation of clones over time significantly, indicating parasite-mediated evolution in the experimental populations. Furthermore, the two parasite species changed clone frequencies differently, suggesting that the interaction between infection and competitive ability of the hosts was specific to the parasite species. Taken together, our results suggest that parasite strains that invade local host populations can lead to evolutionary changes in the genetic composition of the host population and that this change is parasite-species specific. 相似文献

This paper determines reproductive limits and variation in performance of male twospotted spider mites Tetranychus urticae Koch when virgin females are provided ad libitum over the first eight days of adult life. Theree phases of male reproduction were studied: copulations, insemination and reproduction. An average one day old male copulated 15 times, inseminated 15 females, and contributed to 336 daughters. All parameters declined with age. The average male inseminated 70 females and contributed to 1145 daughters in the first days. Variability between males was small for all parameters considered. These data suggest that the number of sperm transferred at each insemination, rather than the number of inseminations, is the limiting step to higher male reproductive output.
Résumé La reproduction est un processus qui nécessite généralement un mâle et une femelle. Cependant la biologie des populations ne s'est traditionnellement intéressée qu'à la contribution des femelles dans ce processus. Un effet de cet accent sur les femelles est que l'activité reproductrice des mâles a été très ignorée. Cet article examine, dans un contexte démographique, l'activité reproductrice des mâles de T. urticae, acarien arrhénotoque et phytophage. Trois séquences de l'activité reproductrice des mâles ont été examinées: 1) la copulation, 2) l'insémination, 3) la reproduction.En moyenne un mâle de 1 jour a copulé 15 fois, inséminé 15 femelles et a eu 336 filles. Pendant les 8 premiers jours, le mâle moyen a inséminé 70 femelles et a eu 1145 filles. Ces résultats suggèrent que le nombre de spermatozoïdes transférés à chaque insémination, plus que le nombre d'inséminations, est le facteur limitant d'une forte contribution du mâle à la reproduction.相似文献
