What Causes Partial F1 Hybrid Viability? Incomplete Penetrance versus Genetic Variation

BACKGROUND: Interspecific hybrid crosses often produce offspring with reduced but non-zero survivorship. In this paper we ask why such partial inviability occurs. This partial inviability could arise from incomplete penetrance of lethal Dobzhansky-Muller incompatibilities (DMIs) shared by all member...
