How do new species form?
Рет қаралды 1,595
Күн бұрынMeet the scientists in the Hopkins Lab at Harvard University who are studying how new species form to generate the incredible diversity of life we see on Earth! They are unlocking the scientific secrets of Phlox flowers, examining each step of the Phlox life cycle to discover how species have evolved mechanisms to stay separate and distinct.

why hybrid should be sterile? In all movies hybrids are stronger. red queen hypothesis does not work here why?

Great question! Hybrids can still be super vigorous and sterile, like the mule. It is a very strong and durable hybrid of a donkey & horse but is sterile and can't reproduce. Hybrid sterility often comes from chromosome incompatibility, but the Hopkins Lab is still working on discovering the exact genetic reasons why some Phlox hybrids are sterile (and some aren't)

Nice, but most of the video is about how a species prevents a new species from forming...
