Speciation is the process by which one species splits into two or more species Speciation explains the features shared between organisms due to inheritance from their recent common ancestor 4
Speciation forms a conceptual bridge between microevolution and macroevolution Microevolution consists of changes in allele frequency in a population over time Macroevolution refers to broad patterns of evolutionary change above the species level 5
Concept 22.1: 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 6
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 populations together genetically 7

Reproductive Isolation Reproductive isolation is the existence of biological 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 barriers act before or after fertilization 19

Limitations of the Biological Species Concept The biological species concept cannot be applied to fossils or asexual organisms (including all prokaryotes) The biological species concept emphasizes absence of gene flow However, gene flow can occur between distinct species For example, grizzly bears and polar bears can mate to produce “grolar bears” 48

Other Definitions of Species Other species concepts emphasize the unity within a species rather than the separateness of different species The morphological species concept defines a species by structural features It applies to sexual and asexual species but relies on subjective criteria 53
The ecological species concept views a species in terms of its ecological niche It applies to sexual and asexual species and emphasizes the role of disruptive selection The phylogenetic species concept defines a species as the smallest group of individuals on a phylogenetic tree It applies to sexual and asexual species, but it can be difficult to determine the degree of difference required for separate species 54
Concept 22.2: Speciation can take place with or without geographic separation Speciation can occur in two ways Allopatric speciation Sympatric speciation 55
Allopatric speciation: forms a new species while Figure 22.5 Figure 22.5 Two main modes of speciation Allopatric speciation: forms a new species while geographically isolated. (a) (b) Sympatric speciation: a subset forms a new species without geographic separation. 56
Allopatric (“Other Country”) Speciation In allopatric speciation, gene flow is interrupted when a population is divided into geographically isolated subpopulations For example, the flightless cormorant of the Galápagos likely originated from a flying species on the mainland 57
The Process of Allopatric Speciation The definition of a geographic 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 58
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 59

Regions with many geographic barriers typically have more species than do regions with fewer barriers Reproductive isolation between populations generally increases as the geographic distance between them increases 69
Barriers to reproduction are intrinsic; separation itself is not a biological barrier Intrinsic reproductive barriers can develop in experimentally isolated populations 70

Sympatric (“Same Country”) Speciation In sympatric speciation, speciation takes place in populations that live in the same geographic area Sympatric speciation occurs when gene flow is reduced between groups that remain in contact through factors including Polyploidy Habitat differentiation Sexual selection 74
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 The offspring of matings between autopolyploids and diploids have reduced fertility 75

Many important crops (oats, cotton, potatoes, tobacco, and wheat) are polyploids 82
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 83
Sexual Selection Sexual selection can drive sympatric speciation Sexual selection for mates of different colors has likely contributed to speciation in cichlid fish in Lake Victoria 84

Allopatric and Sympatric Speciation: A Review In allopatric speciation, geographic isolation restricts gene flow between populations Reproductive isolation may then arise by natural selection, genetic drift, or sexual selection in the isolated populations Even if contact is restored between populations, interbreeding is prevented by reproductive barriers 90
In sympatric speciation, a reproductive barrier isolates a subset of a population without geographic separation from the parent species Sympatric speciation can result from polyploidy, natural selection, or sexual selection 91
Concept 22.3: 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 92
Patterns Within Hybrid Zones A hybrid zone can occur in a single band where adjacent species meet For example, two species of toad in the genus Bombina interbreed in a long and narrow hybrid zone 93

Hybrids often have reduced fitness compared with parent species The distribution of hybrid zones can be more complex if parent species are found in patches within the same region 99
Hybrid Zones over Time When closely related species meet in a hybrid zone, there are three possible outcomes Reinforcement Fusion Stability 100
Gene flow Population Barrier to gene flow Figure 22.12-1 Figure 22.12-1 Formation of a hybrid zone and possible outcomes for hybrids over time (step 1) Population Barrier to gene flow 101

Possible outcomes: Hybrid zone Reinforcement Fusion Gene flow Figure 22.12-4 Formation of a hybrid zone and possible outcomes for hybrids over time (step 4) Population Barrier to gene flow Hybrid individual Stability 104
Reinforcement occurs when hybrids are less fit than the parent species Natural selection strengthens (reinforces) reproductive barriers, and, over time, the rate of hybridization decreases Where reinforcement occurs, reproductive barriers should be stronger for sympatric than for allopatric species 105
This might be causing the fusion of many species Fusion of the parent species into a single species may occur if hybrids are as fit as parents, allowing substantial gene flow between species For example, researchers think that pollution in Lake Victoria has reduced the ability of female cichlids to distinguish males of different species This might be causing the fusion of many species 106

In a stable hybrid zone, hybrids continue to be produced over time Stability of the hybrid zone may be achieved if extensive gene flow from outside the hybrid zone can overwhelm selection for increased reproductive isolation inside the hybrid zone In a stable hybrid zone, hybrids continue to be produced over time 111
Concept 22.4: 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 112
The Time Course of Speciation Broad patterns in speciation can be studied using the fossil record, morphological data, or molecular data 113
Patterns in the Fossil Record The fossil record includes examples of species that appear suddenly, persist essentially unchanged for some time, and then apparently disappear These periods of apparent stasis punctuated by sudden change are called punctuated equilibria The punctuated equilibrium model contrasts with a model of gradual change in a species’ existence 114
(a) Punctuated model Time (b) Gradual model Figure 22.14 Figure 22.14 Two models for the tempo of speciation, based on patterns observed in the fossil record (b) Gradual model 115
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 and quickly diverged into a new species 116

Experimental hybrid H. anomalus Chromosome 2 Experimental hybrid H. annuus-specific marker H. petiolarus-specific marker 118
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 119
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 For example, in Japanese Euhadra snails, the direction of shell spiral affects mating and is controlled by a single gene 120
In monkey flowers (Mimulus), two loci affect flower color, which influences pollinator preference Pollination that is dominated by either hummingbirds or bees can lead to reproductive isolation of the flowers In other species, speciation can be influenced by larger numbers of genes and gene interactions 121
