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 …

Haldane's rule in the 21st century
M Schilthuizen, M Giesbers, LW Beukeboom - Heredity, 2011 - nature.com
Abstract Haldane's Rule (HR), which states that 'when in the offspring of two different animal
races one sex is absent, rare, or sterile, that sex is the heterozygous (heterogametic) sex', is …

A genomic footprint of hybrid zone movement in crested newts
Speciation typically involves a stage in which species can still exchange genetic material.
Interspecific gene flow is facilitated by the hybrid zones that such species establish upon …
