Evidence for cryptic hybridization between different evolutionary lineages of the invasive clam genus Corbicula (Veneroida, Bivalvia) (2002, background): “Secondary contact zones thus pose questions concerning the level of reproductive isolation among the lineages, evolutionary processes and taxonomic issues (for reviews see Harrison, 1990; Arnold, 1992; Barton, 2001).”
Redefining the Role of Admixture and Genomics in Species Conservation (2018, background): “Major shifts in evolutionary space, such as intraspecific adaptations or species radiations, often require novel phenotypes to exploit new niches (Stebbins 1959; Jackiw et al. 2015).”
Genetics and ecological speciation (2009, methodology): “These compensatory mechanisms fail in hybrids containing a sample of mutations from each of the parent populations, resulting in a phenotype that deviates from the optimum in the secondary traits (28).”
hzar: hybrid zone analysis using an R software package (2014, background): “These regions are thought to be stable over evolutionary time and can be maintained by environmental gradients (Ender 1977) or by a balance between selection against hybrids and the dispersal of parentals into the zone (Barton 1979, 2001; Barton & Gale 1993).”
Patterns of hybridization in plants (2010, background): “Some have even argued that hybridization is more important than mutation in generating genetic novelty within populations (Stebbins, 1959; Knobloch, 1972).”
Variation in sexual reproduction in orchids and its evolutionary consequences: a spasmodic journey to diversification (2004, neutral): “Stebbins GL. 1959.”
Introgression between invasive saltcedars (Tamarix chinensis and T. ramosissima) in the USA (2009, background): “Creation of novel hybrids or genotypes may create increased genetic variation (Anderson 1949; Stebbins 1959; Abbott 1992), new interactions between genes (Templeton 1981), and the transfer of favorable genes traits such as cold tolerance or disease/herbivore resistance (Milne and Abbott 2000;…”
Detecting introgressive hybridisation in rock partridge populations (Alectoris graeca) in Greece through Bayesian admixture analyses of multilocus genotypes (2007, background): “Research in stable tension zones often revealed various kinds of hybrid unfitness, which could drive hybrids to evolutionary dead ends, while, in other biological frameworks, hybridisation may have the potential to generate genetic diversity and boost novel adaptive radiations (Barton 2001).”
Adaptive introgression in animals: examples and comparison to new mutation and standing variation as sources of adaptive variation (2013, background): “Low fitness found in many hybrid animals has also been thought to be a significant barrier to introgression (Barton 2001; Coyne & Orr 2004) although some hybrids show high fitness (Burke & Arnold 2001; Mallet 2005).”
