SPECIES BARRIERS. “The definition of a species is that it cannot breed successfully with another species, so “to understand speciation is to understand how these reproductive barriers evolved…You call them new species when there are barriers that prevent them from breeding with each other. Identifying these genes and uncovering the molecular basis of hybrid sterility or death is key to understanding how new species evolve and remains one of the big and longstanding questions in biology since Darwin.”
