Species and Speciation I. Species Concepts II. Recognizing Species III. Making Species - Reproductive Isolation IV. Speciation
17
Speciation Speciation is not a goal, or a selective product of adaptation. It is simply a consequence of genetic changes that occurred for other reasons (selection, drift, mutation, etc.).
18
Speciation I. Modes:
19
Speciation I. Modes: A. Allopatric: Divergence in geographically separate populations - Vicariance - range divided by new geographic feature A BC
21
Almost all most recent divergence events date to 3 my, and separate species on either side of the isthmus
22
Speciation I. Modes: A. Allopatric: Divergence in geographically separate populations - Vicariance - range divided by new geographic feature - Peripatric - divergence of a small migrant population A B

Speciation I. Modes: A. Allopatric: Divergence in geographically separate populations - Vicariance - range divided by new geographic feature - Peripatric - divergence of a small migrant population B. Parapatric - neighboring populations diverge, even with gene flow

Speciation I. Modes: A. Allopatric: Divergence in geographically separate populations - Vicariance - range divided by new geographic feature - Peripatric - divergence of a small migrant population B. Parapatric - neighboring populations diverge, even with gene flow C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population

Maynard Smith (1966) - hypothesized this was possible if there was disruptive selection within a population - perhaps as a specialist herbivore/parasite colonized and adapted to a new host.
29
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population Maynard Smith (1966) - hypothesized this was possible if there was disruptive selection within a population - perhaps as a specialist herbivore/parasite colonized and adapted to a new host. Example: Hawthorn/Apple Maggot Fly (Rhagoletis pomonella) Hawthorn maggot fly is a native species that breeds on Hawthorn (Crataegus sp.)
30
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population Maynard Smith (1966) - hypothesized this was possible if there was disruptive selection within a population - perhaps as a specialist herbivore/parasite colonized and adapted to a new host. Example: Hawthorn/Apple Maggot Fly (Rhagoletis pomonella) Europeans brought apples to North America. They are in the same plant family (Rosaceae) as Hawthorn.

C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population Maynard Smith (1966) - hypothesized this was possible if there was disruptive selection within a population - perhaps as a specialist herbivore/parasite colonized and adapted to a new host. Example: Hawthorn/Apple Maggot Fly (Rhagoletis pomonella) Europeans brought apples to North America. They are in the same plant family (Rosaceae) as Hawthorn. In 1864, apple growers noticed infestation by Apple Maggot flies...which were actually just "hawthorn flies"...
32
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population Maynard Smith (1966) - hypothesized this was possible if there was disruptive selection within a population - perhaps as a specialist herbivore/parasite colonized and adapted to a new host. Example: Hawthorn/Apple Maggot Fly (Rhagoletis pomonella) races breed on their own host plant, and have adapted to the different seasons of fruit ripening. Only a 4-6% hybridization rate. Temporal, not geographic, isolation.
33
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977a and 1977b. Science. Two species of green lacewings - generalist insect predators Chrysopa downesi has one generation in early spring C. carnea breeds and has three generations in summer
34
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977a and 1977b. Science. Two species of green lacewings - generalist insect predators Chrysopa downesi has one generation in early spring, then diapause C. carnea breeds has three generations in summer, no diapause The differences are due to responses to photoperiod C. downesi stops reproducing and goes into diapause under long day length (summer), whereas C. carnea reproduces under long day length.
35
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977a. Science 197:592. The species are completely interfertile in the lab: Did reciprocal matings: C. downesi x C. carea Reared F1 offspring under long day length (16L:8D). Found all F1 did not enter diapause (C. carnea photoperiod response is dominant).
36
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977a. Science 197:592. Did F1 x F1 cross: Found 7% (~1/16) of F2 exhibited diapause at 16L:8D. This is consistent with a model of 2 independently assorting autosomal genes with complete dominance at each and an additive effect. AABBx aabb F1all A-B- phenotype F2A-B- = 9/16 A-bb = 3/16 aaB- = 3/16 aabb = 1/16.... ~ 7% C. carnea photoperiod C. downesi photoperiod
37
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977a. Science 197:592. F1 x C. downesi backcross had 3:1 ratio, as expected of model. AaBb x aabb AaBb =.25 Aabb =.25 aaBb =.25 aabb =.25 C. carnea photoperiod C. downesi photoperiod
38
C. Sympatric: Divergence within a single population But can a generalist speciate sympatrically? Tauber and Tauber. 1977b. Science 197:1298. How did this temporal separation get established? C. downesi is dark green and prefers hemlock forests C. carnea is light green and prefers fields and meadows Difference governed by a single locus where dark is incompletely dominant.

C. downesi is dark green and prefers hemlock forests C. carnea is light green and prefers fields and meadows Difference governed by a single locus where dark is incompletely dominant. Hypothesize that selection for different morphs in different habitats created the stable dimorphism, reinforced by inbreeding within the habitats. intermediate heterozygote

Hypothesize that selection for different morphs in different habitats created the stable dimorphism, reinforced by inbreeding within the habitats. Selection then favored early breeding in C. downesi, as that is when insects feeding on conifers are most abundant.

44
Tilley et al. 1990. PNAS. Desmognathus ochrophaeus in western NC 2. Placed sympatric and allopatric males and females (reciprocal mating design) together for an evening and examined the cloaca of female in the morning for presence of sperm packet. Calculated "Coefficient of Isolation": (sum of % of sympatric matings) - (sum of % of allopatric matings) 2 = total isolation by sexual selection 0 = no differentiation by sexual selection

The alpine populations had a more recent history (400,000 yrs) than either of the others (1.2-1.9 my)

72
- adaptation to an extreme habitat Gompert et al. 2006. Science 314: 1923. - What maintains this genetic uniqueness? Fidelity to Host Plant Also, their eggs don't stick to the leaf; they drop off into litter. This may be adaptive, as winds blow leaves a long way from original plant at high elevations. The host plant is a perennial, so dropping into the leaf litter keeps it close to host plant. Other species, even if they used the plant, would have eggs dispersed from the host plant. That's bad for butterflies, 'cuz caterpillars don't disperse too far...

(C) The distribution across markers of the proportion of H. petiolaris alleles seen in experimental hybrids. There were three generations of crossing within the hybrid population, followed by two generations of backcrossing to H. annuus. Therefore, in the absence of selection, one expects 1/8 of the genes to derive from H. petiolaris, with a distribution concentrated in the 1– 25% class. In regions of genome with the same gene order in H. petiolaris and H. annuus (red ), most markers fail to introgress, but some introgress more than expected. In regions of genome that differ in gene order as a result of chromosome rearrangements, there is almost no introgression (blue). (D) Patterns of introgression along the genomes are similar between experimental hybrids and the natural hybrid species, H. anomalus. Three of the 17 H. anomalus chromosomes are shown. The letters to the left (R, S, T, Q) indicate homology of these chromosomes to regions of the parental genomes. (The leftmost chromosome is rearranged, and combines linkage blocks R and S.) Arrows to the right indicate the genetic markers. The shading indicates the likelihood that the regions derived from H. annuus (blue) or H. petiolaris (yellow).
