The biological species concept considers a species as a population of individuals that interbreeds freely and produces viable offspring. Therefore, reproductive isolation is the essence of species. Hybrid necrosis is one form of post-zygotic reproductive isolation. In this chapter, we summarize what is known to date about this phenomenon and highlight progress made in the understanding of these immune-triggered hybrid incompatibilities through our research in the plant model Arabidopsis thaliana.18 p.application/pdfeng(c) Research Signpost, 2014Arabidopsis thalianaBiologia molecular vegetalFisiologia vegetalPlant molecular biologyPlant physiologyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart289601info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
