stabilization theory..provides a much more..satisfactory explanation than does neo-Darwinian theory.

Hybrid infertility:..Reduction in the quality and/or number of gametes produced by a hybrid..(in comparison..with its parents..
Hybrid inviability:..Impairment..of a hybrid's ability..to survive (in comparison with its parents).

A frequently encountered explanation..of the pervasiveness of hybrid infertility.*suggests that natural selection..acts directly to increase..reproductive..*isolation...EDIT..

This process,..known as.."reinforcement",..supposedly occurs when the two somasets..come back into contact..("secondary..[f2/3..4/5th..100th?..contact").

At this stage,..natural selection.is said to favor those individuals that mate..with their own kind...Thus,.it is said,..reproductive isolation..*eventually becomes complete,..as hybrids*..become less viable and fertile.

Reinforcement,.however,..is controversial(Butlin 2005)..Even those who accept..the idea of reinforcement..would admit many biologists do not accept it...BECAUSE..Selection for infertile,..inviable offspring
is,..in fact,.a contradiction..in terms...only/overuled..by survival/of..fittest..

YET..[survivors..designed..advantageous adaption/BY SURVIVING]

natural selection..is a process favoring
traits..that help,.not hinder,..the..production of offspring...Indeed,..no explanation,..accounting in terms of natural selection,..for the general finding that hybrids..are typically of reduced fertility..is accepted by all biologists...[YET..OFFER BETTER SURVIVAL][HYBRED-VIGOR..PHYSIOLOGICAL ADVANTAGE..[BIPEDALISM?]

hybridism..[AS FAST..AS OPPORTUNISTIC/as disaster cometh]

An explicit presentation..of the D-M model..would require the introduction..of a number of technical concepts...But non-geneticists can simply ignore..such technicalities....EDIT..

The process..there described..produces two genetically distinct populations...Coyne and Orr say..it is.."entirely possible,"..if individuals from those two populations interbred,..that the resulting hybrids.."could be sterile"..[or rUN/RAMPANT..VIA..AN ADVANTAGE/THUS SURVIVE]

However,..there is really no reason..for us to expect such hybrids to be sterile...Since the D-M model..is supposed to explain a general phenomenon..(hybrid sterility),..it should identify a general causative mechanism.[EDITED]

The same reasoning..applies to the D-M model. True...It describes a process that could..produce sterile hybrids..But its proponents fail to explain..why we should expect it to do so.

If it were somehow true..that two distinct types gained an advantage by producing sterile offspring together,..then we would expect natural selection..to favor the production of sterile..We would therefore expect sterility..generally to be a trait of hybrids.

However,..the D-M model eschews selection;..and it specifies no other causative mechanism.Neo-Darwinians fail to explain how these additional genetic differences..would cause the production of sterile offspring with disrupted meiosis..and few viable gametes.

They also fail to explain..why we should expect..genetically distinct populations..to produce/hybrids..infertile..OR NOT.

Dear OUG, (Johan),

Man did not walk with dinosaurs, nor view the transition of forerunner species emerging from the marine and/or aquatic environment onto the 'land'; Man could not have survived the catastrophe which caused the extinction of the dinosaurs; Man is said to be 'in God's image' - but which? Those who abide by the Golden Rule, or those who run amok and kill, maim, rape, torture, enslave, and destroy?

God would not have 'purposely' created such an unreliable creature as Man (even from some sense of 'play'), and, since God is infallible, and can not be known by Man, it is quite impossible for Man to be in His 'image' - excepting through a spurious interpretation by some that God is 'within' Man (per the 'soul'), though, given the general 'nature' of Man, very many must be devoid of a 'soul' and devoid of any concept/pretext of 'God' ('within' or otherwise).

God could not have 'created' ALL within 6 days (of any 'duration') - unless He created it 'piecemeal' over 4 billion years, a 'new' species here, wiping out a defunct species there, chucking in an ice-age here and there (to 'test' individual adaptability, or for 'what the heck' reasons). Such an active God, in a demonstrably 'near-godless' world?
'Creationism' is obviously a 'crock'.

All your machinations about hybrids and genetic theory/science DEMONSTRATE that species viability can only be assured through like-with-like fertilization, AND that new species development can ONLY be achieved through genetic mutation enabling resultant within-species retention and propagation of 'beneficial' physical/physiological 'adaptations' - with 'dominant' beneficial mutations eventually leading to new-species evolution (and subsequent inability to produce viable offspring from cross-fertilization - to maintain the essential 'integrity' of such new species).

So, why would God have fashioned genetic mutation as part and parcel of almost every species, if not to enable species' evolution? And, with survival of the fittest ('natural selection') as the consequent 'differentiating' mechanism to 'test' worthiness and to enable inherent 'adaptability' to changing circumstances?

I say again, if there is a God, species 'evolution' was and is His plan, not Man's.

SALTY..<<..Man did not walk with dinosaurs,>>
NO COMMENT..but
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=fossilized+shoe+print&

OK PERSONALLY I CANT SEE the shoe
BUT IF A SHOE..[200 MILLION Years old]..then who nows..WHAT THEY SAW

ONE SURE THING..NO MAN/NOR SCIENTIST..'SAW'..<<<<..nor view the transition of forerunner species emerging from the marine and/or aquatic environment onto the 'land';>>

as the CASE FOR THAT IS SLOPPY
ie all mammals descend from the fresh water frog..[name of bIG EGG IN GREEk/Latin..or some other taxonomic fib..see page 2
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v453/n7192/pdf/nature06936.pdf

<<..Man could not have survived the catastrophe which caused the extinction of the dinosaurs;>>

Clearly 7 families survived the flood
as FOR THE Science proof OF A METEOR/WHO IS TO KNOW THAT MAY HAVE BEEN LONG BEFORE[BUT I PERSONALLY FEEL THE TOWER OF BABBLE..or mosus when they had bunches of grapes it took TWO MEN To carry[who KNOWS WHAT THE FALLEN ANGELS DUN>

<<..Man is said to be..'in God's..image'-but which?>>
thin more that we are a reflection..of god..[his mirror image
regardless of SEX RACE OR beastly INCLINATION]..THE UNI-VERSE IS IN GODS IMAGE TOO..and it resembles AN Amoeba..or a nipple..[or a cell[a dark CENTER..in a CIRCLE OF AFFECT..YOU BARE TWO OF HIS FACES..ON YA BREAST[IN EVERy eye]..circles/WITHIN\CIRCLES.

<<..God would not have 'purposely' created such an unreliable creature as Man ..even from some sense of 'play'),>>

that's..opinion/not fact..BUT THE Truth is..god seeks to know/thyself[love thyself]..we seek to love THIS Image of self[as do the beasts]..but then you got those lovers who take even loving..that bit too far[but that infinite variable LOVE has some awsum fruits

<<..and, since God is infallible,>>

you just revealed he isnt..but yes its easier to assume infallibility LEST WE UPSET THE ALL LOVING ALL GOOD

<<..and can not be known by Man,>>
the bible advises we cannot look UPON HIS FAce directly
BUT WE CAN LOOK AT EACH-OTHERS FACE..And see our creator good under the flesh..sustaining the FLESH ITS living

[TRY SERIOUSLY LOOKING INTO SOMEONES EYES..and saY YOUR NOT FEELING GOD LOOKING RIGHT BACK[WITH LOVE GRATITUDE Confusion amusement pain..THERE IN FRONT OF YOU..seeing you..in fact..looking right bacK AT YOU..any living eYE WILL DO

ANYHOW I GOT TO THINKING..why do we need all this 'complicatED'..NAME CALLING
BUT to hide a lie..[my thinking was why cant the scxience call A FLEA A FLEA
BUT THEN THAT WOULD BECOME TOO CLEAR/THEY GOT NOTHING

like if a flea..bounces into a mosquito
THEIR taxonomy would look alike/but tyhe reality more cleaR/THE LIE MORE EASY SEEN THROUGH
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=plain+lanGUAGE+TREE+OF+LIFE&i

it woulD BE NICE TO NOT HAVE TO LOOK UP COMMON NAME 'TRE OF LIFE
BUT THEN Again im reminded..the bible got it first
NOT ONLY THE TREE OF LIFE..BUT THE TREE OK KNOWLEDGE..of good bad as well.

ITS JUST TOO NEAT
AND that those knowing its wrong..still remain mute
find mE A 'TRE OF LIFE''..IN PLAIN WORD..I wil show the theory is built on bubbles in the clay..ITS CALL a great idea..till you try to divide the first CLAY CELL..ITS LIKELY SAID BETTER THAN I COULd here
