Evolutionary novelty through hybridisation

Hybridisation often causes reduces biodiversity as it can lead to species fusion and loss of local adaptation. However, under certain conditions, hybridisation can facilitate evolutionary novelty. Using genomics, I show that hybridisation facilitated the extremely rapid evolution of hundreds of cichlid fish species and the evolution of a new colour race in Heliconius butterflies.
