Sex chromosomes in meiotic, hemiclonal, clonal and polyploid hybrid vertebrates: along the 'extended speciation continuum'
We review knowledge about the roles of sex chromosomes in vertebrate hybridization and
speciation, exploring a gradient of divergences with increasing reproductive isolation …

Sex chromosomes as supergenes of speciation: why amphibians defy the rules?
C Dufresnes, PA Crochet - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
As reflected by the two rules of speciation (Haldane's rule and the large X-/Z-effect), sex
chromosomes are expected to behave like supergenes of speciation: they recombine only in …

Mass of genes rather than master genes underlie the genomic architecture of amphibian speciation
The genetic architecture of speciation, ie, how intrinsic genomic incompatibilities promote
reproductive isolation (RI) between diverging lineages, is one of the best-kept secrets of …

Convergent recombination suppression suggests role of sexual selection in guppy sex chromosome formation
Sex chromosomes evolve once recombination is halted between a homologous pair of
chromosomes. The dominant model of sex chromosome evolution posits that recombination …

Multiple uprising invasions of Pelophylax water frogs, potentially inducing a new hybridogenetic complex
The genetic era has revolutionized our perception of biological invasions. Yet, it is usually
too late to understand their genesis for efficient management. Here, we take the rare …
