This research investigates the interactions between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes to understand their role in cell respiration and genetic diversity. Using the black-tailed brush lizard as a model, it explores how coadaptation affects reproductive isolation and hybrid breakdown.
My project will investigate the interactions between the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes.
Proteins encoded by both genomes are required for cell respiration, the main source of energy production in eukaryotes.
Selection is strong for optimal function of cell respiration, leading to coadaptation of mitochondrial and nuclear genes (“cytonuclear coevolution”).
Experiments have show that the breakup of such coadapted gene complexes can lead to hybrid breakdown, which may reduce gene flow between p…
