Testes Proteases Expression and Hybrid Male Sterility Between Subspecies of .

Hybrid male sterility (HMS) is a form of postmating postzygotic isolation among closely related species that can act as an effective barrier to gene flow. The Dobzhansky-Muller model provides a framework to explain how gene interactions can cause HMS between species. Genomics highlights the preponderance of non-coding DNA targets that could be involved in gene interactions resulting in gene expression changes and the establishment of isolating barriers.
