Mosquito Mystery
• Speciation is the emergence of new species
• How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?
– In London, two populations of mosquitoes exist with very little overlap in their respective habitats
– Evidence indicates that the two species did not diverge from one species
![Page 3: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
– In the United States the two species appeared to hybridize into one species, which transmits West Nile virus
– How could the mosquitoes behave like two species on one continent and one species on another?

14.1 The origin of species is the source of biological diversity
• Microevolution, gradual adaptation of a species to its environment, does not produce new species
• Speciation, the origin of new species, is at the focal point of evolution
• Macroevolution, dramatic biological changes that begin with the origin of new species, has led to Earth's great biodiversity

CONCEPTS OF SPECIES
14.2 What is a species?
• Taxonomy is the branch of biology concerned with naming and classifying the diverse forms of life
– The binomial system was introduced by Linnaeus in the 18th century
• Similarities between some species and variation within a species can make defining species difficult

• The biological species concept
– Defines a species as a population or group of populations whose members can interbreed and produce fertile offspring
• Reproductive isolation of different species prevents gene flow
– Cannot be used as the sole criterion for species assignment
![Page 10: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• The morphological species concept
– Classifies organisms based on observable phenotypic traits
• The ecological species concept
– Defines a species by its ecological role
• The phylogenetic species concept
– Defines a species as a set of organisms with a unique genetic history
![Page 11: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
14.3 Reproductive barriers keep species separate
• Reproductive barriers serve to isolate a species' gene pool and prevent interbreeding
– Prezygotic barriers prevent mating or fertilization between species
• Temporal isolation: Species breed at different times
• Behavioral isolation: There is little or no sexual attraction between species due to specific behaviors
![Page 12: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

• Mechanical isolation: Female and male sex organs or gametes are not compatible
• Gametic isolation: After copulation, gametes do not unite to form a zygote
![Page 15: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

– Postzygotic barriers operate after hybrid zygotes are formed
• Hybrid inviability: Hybrids do not survive
• Hybrid sterility: Hybrid offspring between two species are sterile and therefore cannot mate
• Hybrid breakdown: Hybrids that mate with each other or either parent species produce feeble or sterile offspring

MECHANISMS OF SPECIATION
14.4 Geographic isolation can lead to speciation
• In allopatric speciation, a population is geographically divided
– Barriers include geologic processes such as emergence of a mountain or subsidence of a lake
– Changes in allele frequencies are unaffected by gene flow from other populations
– New species often evolve, but only after reproductive barriers develop
![Page 19: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

14.5 Reproductive barriers may evolve as populations diverge
• Diane Dodd tested the hypothesis that reproductive barriers can evolve as a by-product of the adaptive divergence of populations in different environments
– Fruit flies bred for several generations on a certain food tended to choose mates that were raised on the same food
• Reproductive isolation was well under way after several generations of evolutionary divergence

• Geographic isolation in Death Valley led to allopatric speciation of pupfish
– By genetic drift or natural selection, the isolated populations evolved into separate species

14.6 New species can also arise within the same geographic area as the parent species
• In sympatric speciation, new species may arise without geographic isolation
– Not widespread among animals but important in plant evolution
• Many plant species have evolved by polyploidy, multiplication of the chromosome number due to errors in cell division
– First discovered by Hugo de Vries
– Most polyploid plants arise from the hybridization of two parent species

14.7 Polyploid plants clothe and feed us
• 20—25% of all plant species are polyploids
– Most result from hybridization between two species
– Many of our food and fiber plants are polyploids
• Bread wheat, Triticum aestivum, is a polyploid with 42 chromosomes that evolved over 8,000 years ago
• Today, plant geneticists create new polyploids in the laboratory

14.8 Adaptive radiation may occur in new or newly vacated habitats
• Adaptive radiation: the evolution of many new species from a common ancestor in a diverse environment
– Occurs when mass extinctions or colonization provide organisms with new environments
![Page 30: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Island chains with physically diverse habitats are often sites of explosive adaptive radiation
– 14 species of Galápagos finches differ in feeding habits and beak type
– Evidence indicates that all 14 species evolved from a single small population of ancestors that colonized one island

TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE
14.9 Peter and Rosemary Grant study the evolution of Darwin's finches
• Peter and Rosemary Grant have documented natural selection acting on populations of Galápagos finches
– Finch beaks adapted to different food sources through natural selection, as Darwin hypothesized
– Occasional hybridization of finch species may have been important in their adaptive radiation
![Page 34: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

14.10 The tempo of speciation can appear steady or jumpy
• Gradualism model: New species evolve by the gradual accumulation of changes brought about by natural selection
– Darwin's original model
– Not well supported by the fossil record, because most new species seem to appear suddenly in rock strata without intermediary transitional forms
![Page 36: Chapter 14 The Origin of Species. Mosquito Mystery Speciation is the emergence of new species How do we know that a distinctly new species has evolved?](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051216/5697bff61a28abf838cbe363/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• Punctuated equilibrium model: periods of rapid evolutionary change and speciation interrupted by long periods of little or no detectable change
– Fossil record shows species changing most as they arise from an ancestral species and then relatively little for the rest of their existence
• Most evolutionary biologists now see both models as having merit
• Current research is focused on the tempo of evolution

MACROEVOLUTION
14.11 Evolutionary novelties may arise in several ways
• Darwin's theory of gradual change can account for the evolution of intricate structures
– Complex structures may evolve in stages from simpler versions having the same basic function
• Example: Eyes of molluscs
– Existing structures may be gradually adapted to new functions
• Exaptation: a feature that evolved in one context and was later adapted for another function

14.12 Genes that control development are important in evolution
• "Evo-devo" combines evolutionary and developmental biology
– Studies how slight genetic changes can be magnified into significant phenotypic changes
• Many striking evolutionary transformations are the result of a change in the rate or timing of developmental changes
– Paedamorphosis: retention in adult of features that were juvenile in its ancestors

• Important in human evolution
– Large skull and long childhood provide humans with more space for brain and more opportunity to learn from adults
– Juvenile physical traits may make adults more caring and protective
• Example: "evolution" of Mickey Mouse

14.13 Evolutionary trends do not mean that evolution is goal directed
• Evolutionary trends reflect the unequal speciation or unequal survival of species on a branching evolutionary tree
– Example: lineages of horses that died out
• Evolutionary trends do not imply an intrinsic drive toward a goal
– If environmental conditions change, an apparent trend may cease or reverse
