New insights into genomics of speciation
New research could herald an important shift in thinking about the genomics of speciation. The prevailing assumption about how the genomes of newly forming species should differ during the earliest stages of divergence with gene flow speciation is that it will be characterized by a few regions of strong differentiation. New evidence suggests that instead, speciation in the classic apple maggot fly involves genome-wide differentiation driven by natural selection.
