GENE FLOW AND SPECIATION. “Speciation in the presence of gene flow, in sexual species, can be driven by two general processes: (i) nonrandom mating that results in assortative mating, the mating of like with like, which reduces gene flow between groups, and (ii) divergent selection, which favors extremes in a population and thus can lead to a splitting of the species.”
