framework
multidimensional phenospace
The extent of possible variation in a particular phenotypic trait where different dimensions represent the extent of phenotypic variation in two traits
phenomenon
hybrid breakdown
Reduced fitness in F2 hybrids compared to F1 hybrids, often attributed to genetic incompatibilities between nuclear genes
process
antagonistic selection
Selection pressures that oppose each other within or between levels of biological organization
process
assortative mating
Non-random mating where individuals preferentially mate with similar individuals
process
reciprocal hybridization
Crosses between two species where each species serves as both maternal and paternal parent, allowing study of cytoplasmic inheritance effects
