Sample text

Genetically, the primary differences between the two species occur at about 20 loci, at each of which alleles can be of two types: call these A and B. In species X, all 20 alleles are of type A; in Y, they are all of type B. The hybrids have type A alleles at some loci and type B alleles at the other loci. Fisher-style genetics can obviously distinguish one species from the other. However, it cannot distinguish a random mixture of X and Y, occupying territory in and around the hybrid zone, from the hybrids themselves.

These include various biologically motivated models, such as Higashi et al. [42], Kondrashov and Kondrashov [53], Dieckmann and Doebeli [23], and Tregenza and Butlin [79]. In particular, Higashi et al. [42] argue that sympatric speciation can be accomplished through sexual selection without disruptive natural selection. Their model comprises a population of sexually reproducing organisms, from which N 32 Ian Stewart, Toby Elmhirst, and Jack Cohen males and N females are chosen at random at each step.

Instead, random mating within the population produces individuals with more As than average, who eat smaller seeds, and with more Bs than average, who eat larger ones. In the changed conditions, both of these groups prosper; moreover, they do not compete with each other because they prefer seeds of different sizes. Therefore, between them, they can now out-compete the finches that stick to medium beak sizes. Selection on individuals plus random recombination now favours a mixed strategy for the group: some finches with a predominance of As, others with a predominance of Bs.
