Interspecific hybridization is a common and important process that generates phenotypic novelty and can lead to hybrid speciation as well as to changes in gene expression. Using two different interspecific cotton (Gossypium) diploid hybrids, we show organ-specific, bidirectional allelic silencing at a heterozygous Adh locus, with alternate alleles being silenced in leaves and many floral organs, respectively. These results show that developmental regulation of gene expression is changed immediately upon hybridization between diploid species, possibly due to epigenetic factors or regulatory mismatch.
