SPECIES INCOMPATIBILITY. “When different yeast species are induced to fuse with each other, their hybrid is unable to proceed smoothly through meiosis, even if all the chromosomes are colinear and syntenic, because a higher level of DNA mismatches provokes the mismatch repair machinery to abort meiotic recombination events, and spores fail to germinate.”
