One fish, two fish, red fish, dead fish: Detecting the genomic footprint of ecological incompatibilities.

As we uncover the ubiquity of hybridization in nature, determining how natural selection acts on hybrids has newfound importance for speciation. A study in PLOS Biology uses threespine stickleback to detect a genomic signature of ecological incompatibilities.
