Next week, we will continue our discussion in genetics of speciation using genomic methods. The three papers we are going to discuss are listed as follows:

Turner, T.L., Hahn, M.W. & Nuzhdin, S.V. 2005. Genomic Islands of Speciation in Anopheles gambiae. PLoS Biol 3, e285. [doi link]

Payseur, B. 2010. The state of the field: Using differential introgression in hybrid zones to identify genomic regions involved in speciation. Molecular Ecology Resources. [doi link]

Geraldes, A., P. Basset, K. L. Smith, and M. W. Nachman. 2011. Higher differentiation among subspecies of the house mouse (Mus musculus) in genomic regions with low recombination. Molecular Ecology 20:4722–4736. [doi link]
