Abstract Reproductive isolation between related oak species within one taxonomic section is incomplete. Even though pre- and postzygotic isolation mechanisms have been described for interfertile oak species, natural hybridization is common in contact zones between related oaks. The apparent restriction of interspecific hybrids between ecologically divergent species to intermediate environments in contact zones suggests postzygotic isolation via environmental selection against hybrids in parental environments. Overrepresentation of hybrids in seeds as compared to adult trees provides additional indirect evidence for selection against hybrids. Here, we used genetic assignment analyses in progeny obtained from a sympatric stand of Quercus rubra and Quercus ellipsoidalis, two interfertile species with different adaptations to drought, to characterize the number of hybrids and “pure” species in the non-germinated acorns and in seedlings. The occurrence of 43.6 % F1 hybrids and introgressive forms among the non-germinated acorns and their very low frequency in the seedlings (9.3 %) is to our knowledge the first direct evidence for early selection against hybrids in oaks possibly as result of genetic incompatibilities. Additionally, we found a signature of positive selection on EST-SSR PIE200 in Q. rubra which needs further confirmation. These results contribute to our understanding of reproductive isolation and divergence between interfertile oak species with different ecological adaptations.

选择两种不育红橡树种之间的杂交种的实验证据

摘要 在一个分类部分内相关橡树种之间的生殖隔离是不完整的。尽管已经描述了不育橡树种的合子前和合子后隔离机制,但自然杂交在相关橡树之间的接触区中很常见。生态上不同的物种之间的种间杂种对接触区中间环境的明显限制表明,通过环境选择对亲本环境中的杂种进行了合子后隔离。与成年树相比,种子中杂交种的过度表现为选择杂交种提供了额外的间接证据。在这里,我们对从红栎和椭圆栎的同域林分获得的后代进行了遗传分配分析,这两种不育物种对干旱具有不同的适应能力,表征未发芽的橡子和幼苗中杂种和“纯”物种的数量。43.6 % F1 杂种和渐渗形式在未发芽的橡子中出现,并且它们在幼苗中的频率非常低 (9.3 %),据我们所知,这是早期选择橡树中的杂种的第一个直接证据,可能是遗传不相容性的结果。此外,我们在 Q. rubra 中发现了 EST-SSR PIE200 的正选择特征,需要进一步确认。这些结果有助于我们了解具有不同生态适应性的不育橡树物种之间的生殖隔离和差异。6 % F1 杂种和非发芽橡子中的渐渗形式以及它们在幼苗中的频率非常低 (9.3 %),据我们所知,这是早期选择橡树中的杂种的第一个直接证据,可能是遗传不相容性的结果。此外,我们在 Q. rubra 中发现了 EST-SSR PIE200 的正选择特征,需要进一步确认。这些结果有助于我们了解具有不同生态适应性的不育橡树物种之间的生殖隔离和差异。6 % F1 杂种和非发芽橡子中的渐渗形式以及它们在幼苗中的频率非常低 (9.3 %) 是我们所知的第一个直接证据,可能是由于遗传不相容性导致在橡树中对杂种进行早期选择。此外,我们在 Q. rubra 中发现了 EST-SSR PIE200 的正选择特征,需要进一步确认。这些结果有助于我们了解具有不同生态适应性的不育橡树物种之间的生殖隔离和差异。
