Chapter 24 The origin of Species

Overview: That “Mystery of Mysteries” In the Galápagos Islands Darwin discovered plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth

Speciation, the origin of new species, is at the focal point of evolutionary theory Evolutionary theory must explain how new species originate and how populations evolve Microevolution consists of changes in allele frequency in a population over time Macroevolution refers to broad patterns of evolutionary change above the species level

Concept 24.1: The biological species concept emphasizes reproductive isolation Species is a Latin word meaning “kind” or “appearance” Biologists compare morphology, physiology, biochemistry, and DNA sequences when grouping organisms

The Biological Species Concept The biological species concept states that a species is a group of populations whose members have the potential to interbreed in nature and produce viable, fertile offspring; they do not breed successfully with other populations Gene flow between populations holds the phenotype of a population together

Reproductive Isolation Reproductive isolation is the existence of biological factors (barriers) that impede two species from producing viable, fertile offspring Hybrids are the offspring of crosses between different species Reproductive isolation can be classified by whether factors act before or after fertilization

Prezygotic barriers block fertilization from occurring by: Impeding different species from attempting to mate Preventing the successful completion of mating Hindering fertilization if mating is successful

Habitat isolation: Two species encounter each other rarely, or not at all, because they occupy different habitats, even though not isolated by physical barriers

Temporal isolation: Species that breed at different times of the day, different seasons, or different years cannot mix their gametes

Behavioral isolation: Courtship rituals and other behaviors unique to a species are effective barriers

Mechanical isolation: Morphological differences can prevent successful mating

Gametic Isolation: Sperm of one species may not be able to fertilize eggs of another species

Postzygotic barriers prevent the hybrid zygote from developing into a viable, fertile adult: Reduced hybrid viability Reduced hybrid fertility Hybrid breakdown

Reduced hybrid viability: Genes of the different parent species may interact and impair the hybrid’s development The hybrid offspring of a male donkey(i) and a female horse (j) is a mule (k), which is robust but sterile Similarly, the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey is a hinny, which is sterile

Reduced hybrid fertility: Even if hybrids are vigorous, they may be sterile

Hybrid breakdown: Some first-generation hybrids are fertile, but when they mate with another species or with either parent species, offspring of the next generation are feeble or sterile

Concept 24.2: Speciation can take place with or without geographic separation Speciation can occur in two ways: Allopatric speciation Sympatric speciation

Allopatric (“Other Country”) Speciation In allopatric speciation, gene flow is interrupted or reduced when a population is divided into geographically isolated subpopulations For example, the flightless cormorant (sea birds) of the Galápagos likely originated from a flying species on the mainland

The Process of Allopatric Speciation The definition of barrier depends on the ability of a population to disperse For example, a canyon may create a barrier for small rodents, but not birds, coyotes, or pollen

Reproductive isolation may arise as a result of genetic divergence Separate populations may evolve independently through mutation, natural selection, and genetic drift Reproductive isolation may arise as a result of genetic divergence For example, mosquitofish in the Bahamas comprise several isolated populations in different ponds

Evidence of Allopatric Speciation 15 pairs of sibling species of snapping shrimp (Alpheus) are separated by the Isthmus of Panama These species originated 9 to 13 million years ago, when the Isthmus of Panama formed and separated the Atlantic and Pacific waters

Regions with many geographic barriers typically have more species than do regions with fewer barriers Reproductive isolation between populations generally increases as the distance between them increases

Polyploidy Polyploidy is the presence of extra sets of chromosomes due to accidents during cell division Polyploidy is much more common in plants than in animals An autopolyploid is an individual with more than two chromosome sets, derived from one species

An allopolyploid is a species with multiple sets of chromosomes derived from different species

Species A 2n = 6 Species B 2n = 4 Meiotic error; chromosome number not reduced from 2n to n Normal gamete n = 3 Unreduced gamete with 4 chromosomes Figure 24.11 One mechanism for allopolyploid speciation in plants.

Normal gamete n = 3 Unreduced gamete with 7 chromosomes New species: viable fertile hybrid (allopolyploid) 2n = 10

Many important crops (oats, cotton, potatoes, tobacco, and wheat) are polyploids

Habitat Differentiation Sympatric speciation can also result from the appearance of new ecological niches For example, the North American maggot fly can live on native hawthorn trees as well as more recently introduced apple trees

Concept 24.3: Hybrid zones reveal factors that cause reproductive isolation A hybrid zone is a region in which members of different species mate and produce hybrids Hybrids are the result of mating between species with incomplete reproductive barriers

Concept 24.4: Speciation can occur rapidly or slowly and can result from changes in few or many genes Many questions remain concerning how long it takes for new species to form, or how many genes need to differ between species

Speciation Rates The punctuated pattern in the fossil record and evidence from lab studies suggest that speciation can be rapid For example, the sunflower Helianthus anomalus originated from the hybridization of two other sunflower species

The interval between speciation events can range from 4,000 years (some cichlids) to 40 million years (some beetles), with an average of 6.5 million years

Studying the Genetics of Speciation A fundamental question of evolutionary biology persists: How many genes change when a new species forms? Depending on the species in question, speciation might require the change of only a single allele or many alleles

From Speciation to Macroevolution Macroevolution is the cumulative effect of many speciation and extinction events
