THE EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY OF DROSOPHILA BUZZATII. XII. THE GENETIC BASIS OF STERILITY IN HYBRIDS BETWEEN D. BUZZATII AND ITS SIBLING D. SERIDO FROM ARGENTINA

The genetic basis of hybrid sterility has been investigated in backcross segmental hybrids between two sibling species, Drosophila buzzatii and D. serido. Asynapsis of homologous bands in hybrid polytene chromosomes has been used to identify the D. serido chromosome segments introgressed into the D. buzzatti genome. All the investigated chromosomes contain male sterility factors. For autosomes, sterility is produced when an introgressed D. serido chromosome segment, or combination of segments, reaches a minimum size. On the other hand, any introgressed X chromosome segment from D. serido, irrespective of its size, produces either male hybrid sterility or inviability.
