Abstract Interspecific hybridization in the Cyprinidae family has been recorded worldwide, with Abramis brama (bream) and Rutilus rutilus (roach) as one of the often-reported hybridizing pairs. The only account of such an event in Bosnia and Herzegovina has been in Modrac Reservoir. Using morphological and molecular markers, the presence of hybrids was surveyed, the hybridization direction was determined and the hybrid group structure in this ecosystem was evaluated. Our findings confirmed unhindered natural hybridization between roach and bream in Modrac Reservoir. Over 50% of the hybrid specimens were classified as F2 hybrids by the NewHybrids software, while the rest were categorized as pure parental form, making it the first such finding in Europe. The analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome b showed that 90% of hybrid individuals were of bream maternal origin. The hybrid group expressed higher mean values of observed heterozygosity and gene diversity than both parental species. Signs of introgressive hybridization between parental species were detected. The hybrid zone of Modrac Reservoir appears to follow the intermediate or “flat” hybrid model based on the balanced distribution of parental and hybrid genotypes. Further investigation is needed to elucidate the factors that enable the survival and mating success of post-F1 individuals.

Hybridization between northern redbelly dace (Phoxinus eos) and finescale dace (Phoxinus neogaeus) was studied in Upper Pierre Grey Lake, Alberta. Sympatric parental and hybrid populations were compared with allopatric populations from Cameron Lake and Tay Lake, Alberta. Canonical variates and principal components analyses, using 31 morphological characters, revealed that the two parental groups were bridged by an intermediate all-female hybrid group in Upper Pierre Grey Lake. Hybrids made up approximately 33% of the individuals of the sympatic population. Neither backcross nor hybrid F2 individuals could be identified from the analyses, although the majority of hybrids were morphologically more similar to P. neogaeus than to P. eos. No clear evidence of introgressive hybridization was found in either of the sympatric parental species.

Hybrid Group

Natural, interspecific hybridization between two species of Amyema (Loranthaceae) has been further investigated using morphometric and biochemical analyses. Metric characteristics of mature leaves place the hybrids in an intermediate position between the two parental species. Thin-layer chromatography of polyphenols, in one and two dimensions, revealed a high level of uniformity of chromatographic pattern within the two species which were clearly distinct from each other. There was some variation in the chromatographic patterns produced by the hybrid group, although all bands or spots could be attributed to one or other of the parent species. The evidence presented supports the conclusion that plants of A. pendulum and A. quandang have produced a group of first-generation hybrids. This is a rare phenomenon within the Loranthaceae.

Terrestrial ecology has been largely neglected in the study of amphibian life histories because it is difficult to manipulate most species during the terrestrial stage. I examined the terrestrial performance of Rana blairi, Rana sphenocephala, and four hybrid (two F1 and two advanced generation) genotypes in replicated experimental enclosures to test for differences in traits related to juvenile terrestrial fitness. I produced all genotypes by means of artificial fertilizations using frogs collected from natural populations in central Missouri, and juvenile frogs were obtained from larvae reared in experimental ponds. Following metamorphosis, froglets were raised in single-genotype groups in terrestrial enclosures through the first overwintering. The proportion surviving did not vary among genotypes, but the power to detect significant differences was low. F1 hybrid genotypes BS and SB demonstrated significantly higher growth rates than either parental species or advanced-generation hybrid genotypes. Observation of growth rates of advanced-generation hybrids equal to those of the parental species, and heterosis in F1 hybrids for growth rate, suggests that natural hybridization between R. blairi and R. sphenocephala can produce novel and relatively fit hybrid genotypes. Direct measurement of multiple fitness components for hybrid and parental genotypes is critical for assessing the evolutionary potential of natural hybridization in organisms with complex life cycles.

Diphasiastrum zeilleri (Rouy) Holub is a hybrid species, with the formula D. complanatum (L.) Holub × D. tristachyum (Pursh) Holub. A high variability of D. zeilleri is due to environmental conditions (light and shadow ecological forms) and probably to introgressive hybridization with the parental species. Intermediate forms between D. zeilleri, D. complanatum and D. tristachyum are quite rare, that allows to treat the three taxa as separate species. D. zeilleri is missing in subarctic regions of Europe and North America, and some degree of its resemblance with D. complanatum subsp. montellii Kukk. is convergent. Lycopodium complanatum f. polystachyum H. Lindb. is considered to belong to D. zeilleri, and an appropriate conbination is published, Diphasiastrum zeilleri var. polystachyum (H. Lindb.) Ivanenko. A new variety Diphasiastrum zeilleri (Rouy) Holub var. ramistachyum Ivanenko is described, differing by sessile strobili formed on the basal part of fertile branches during one growing season. The structure, the base of which is a fertile branch, and the upper part is strobilus (strobili), is proposed to term «strobilus branch». Besides D. zeilleri var. ramistachyum, the strobilus branches are produced by D. issleri (Rouy) Holub, D. oellgaardii Stoor, Boudrie, Jérôme, K. Horn et Bennert, and rarely by D. alpinum (L.) Holub and D. complanatum.

Complex Variation

A small hybrid swarm between Correa aemula and C. reflexa was located and examined morphologically and chemically, with an emphasis on volatile oils. The hybrid plants were intermediate morphologically between the two parental species. The volatile oil data were subjected to multivariate numerical analysis, the results of which confirmed the general intermediacy of the hybrid plants. In general it was found that ordination is a more useful technique for the study of hybridization than is classification. It would appear that numerical analysis of volatile oil data will prove a useful technique in the study of the complex variation found within the genus Correa.

The monogenean Diplozoon paradoxum occurs on Abramis brama, Gobio gobio, Phoxinus phoxinus and Rutilus rutilus in northern England. In any one area, the infection is present in some waters but absent in others and predominates in rivers rather than in ponds or reservoirs.D. paradoxum is randomly distributed on the gills, sides of the gill apparatus, hemibranchs and surfaces of primary lamellae of G. gobio, P. phoxinus and R. rutilus (except for P. phoxinus where inner hemibranchs carry more worms), but prevails on median sectors of the gills of these hosts. In A. brama the parasite is more numerous on certain gills, on the right side of the gill apparatus, and on the inner hemibranchs, but is randomly disposed on primary lamellar surfaces and along the gills. Except on G. gobio attachment is predominantly to two primary lamellae rather than one. This may reduce dislodging effects of the gill ventilating current by leaving portions of the lamellar surfaces unoccupied and allowing unimpeded flow in these regions.This work was conducted during tenure of a Science Research Council Research Studentship.
