Haldane's rule

Article Abstract:

Studies show that Haldane's Rule is primarily the result of the dominance theory. Haldane's Rule, the preferential inviability or sterility of heterogametic hybrids, or XY sex, is driven by the partial recessives generated by speciation genes. The faster evolutionary rate of hybrid male steriles is also a factor resulting in Haldane's Rule.
