A screen for recessive speciation genes expressed in the gametes of F1 hybrid yeast.
Diploid hybrids of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and its closest relative, Saccharomyces paradoxus, are viable, but the sexual gametes they produce are not. One of several possible causes of this gamete inviability is incompatibility between genes from different species--such incompatible genes are usual...
