The genetic basis of hybrid male sterility in sympatric Primulina species

The genetic basis of hybrid male sterility in sympatric Primulina species

Abstract Background Sympatric sister species provide an opportunity to investigate the genetic mechanisms and evolutionary forces that maintain species boundaries. The persistence of morphologically and genetically distinct populations in sympatry can only occur if some degree of reproductive isolat...
