Two transects reveal remarkable variation in gene flow on opposite ends of a European toad hybrid zone
Speciation entails a reduction in gene flow between lineages. The rates at which genomic regions become isolated varies across space and time....

Habitat and climate influence hybridization among three genetically distinct Canada jay (Perisoreus canadensis) morphotypes in an avian hybrid zone complex
Examining the frequency and distribution of hybrids across contact zones provide insights into the factors mediating hybridization. In this study, we...

Structure of the Hybrid Zone between Allied Species of the Common Vole, Microtus arvalis and M. obscurus: Influence of Genetic Factors and Landscape-Geographical Conditions
AbstractPatterns of introgression of several genetic markers across the hybrid zone between allied species of the common vole Microtus arvalis s....

Evidence of hybrid breakdown among invasive hybrid cattails (Typha × glauca)
Interspecific hybridization has varied consequences for offspring fitness, with implications for the maintenance of species integrity. Hybrid vigour,...

The puzzle of plant hybridisation: a high propensity to hybridise but few hybrid zones reported
An interesting conundrum was recently revealed by R. Abbott when he found that the number of hybrid zones reported in the literature for plants is...

Repair of osteochondral defects: efficacy of a tissue-engineered hybrid implant containing both human MSC and human iPSC-cartilaginous particles
Both mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) offer the potential for repair of damaged connective tissues. The use...

Genetic diversity of Syphacia Seurat, 1916 (Nematoda: Oxyuridae) across the hybrid zone of their rodent hosts in Russia
The genetic diversity of Syphacia nematodes (intestinal parasites of rodents) was studied in the hybrid zone of two sister species of common voles, Mic...

Photothermal Therapy Mediated Hybrid Membrane Derived Nano-formulation for Enhanced Cancer Therapy
Emodin is applied as an antitumor drug in many tumor therapies. However, its pharmacology performances are limited due to its low solubility. Herein,...

An agonistic anti-Tie2 antibody suppresses the normal-to-tumor vascular transition in the glioblastoma invasion zone
Tumor progression is intimately associated with the vasculature, as tumor proliferation induces angiogenesis and tumor cells metastasize to distant...

Rapid evolution of hybrid breakdown following recent divergence with gene flow in Senecio species on Mount Etna, Sicily
How do nascent species evolve reproductive isolation during speciation with on-going gene flow? How do hybrid lineages become stabilised hybrid...

Integrating hybrid zone analyses in species delimitation: lessons from two anuran radiations of the Western Mediterranean
Molecular ecologists often rely on phylogenetic evidence for assessing the species-level systematics of newly discovered lineages. Alternatively, the...

Genetic structure in hybrids and progenitors provides insight into processes underlying an invasive cattail (Typha × glauca) hybrid zone
Traditional models of hybrid zones have assumed relatively low hybrid fitness, and thus focussed more on interspecific gene flow than on hybrid...
