TAILIEUCHUNG - Body size divergence promotes post-zygotic reproductive isolation in centrarchids

Today, approximately one in every hundred babies born in the US is conceived using ART. Growth in the use and scientific refinement of ART is carefully monitored by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and its affiliate, the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART), whose memberships consist of specialists in this field of medicine. In December 2009, ASRM convened a meeting of professionals, patient advocates, congressional and federal agency representatives, legal experts, and consumers to examine the oversight of ART.

Method of analysis We estimated the age of each node in the phylogeny using penalized likelihood calibrated with multiple fossil dates. We then regressed the average body size and hybrid viability at each phylogenetic node against the node s age. Residuals from these regressions were compared to test for time-independent relationships between body size divergence and post-zygotic reproductive isolation. Conclusions Morphologically divergent species tend to experience stronger post-zygotic reproductive isolation than expected given their age. These results suggest that morphological divergence between species is associated with an accelerated accumulation of genetic incompatibilities and highlight one potential avenue by which ecological divergence may facilitate speciation. Keywords genetic incompatibility hybridization reproductive isolation speciation. INTRODUCTION In recent years there has been extensive interest in the role of morphological divergence in speciation Schluter 2000 Coyne and Orr 2004 Rundle and Nosil 2005 . Morphological divergence can facilitate reproductive isolation if the differences between populations reduce the likelihood of mating or the survival of hybrids. Pre-mating isolation can occur if .
