Here, we investigate how mito-nuclear incompatibilities impact nuclear and mitochondrial substitutions in a model for species radiation under selection for mito-nuclear compatibility, similar to the process of mtDNA introgression.

Geographic barriers prevent migration between populations, thereby facilitating speciation through allopatry.

Here we consider a two island neutral model of speciation with continuous migration and study diversity patterns as a function of the migration probability, population size, and number of genes involved in reproductive isolation (dubbed as genome size).

We find that strong selection for mito-nuclear compatibility reduces the equilibrium number of species after a radiation, increases the species' abundances, while simultaneously increasing both speciation and extinction rates.

Although traditional models of epidemic spreading focus on the number of infected, susceptible and recovered individuals, a lot of attention has been devoted to integrate epidemic models with population genetics.

Two extreme outcomes of the Voter model dynamics are consensus and coexistence of opinions, which correspond to low and high diversity in the Moran model.

Fitness is assigned to individuals according to their mito-nuclear compatibility, which drives the coevolution of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes.

We sampled these networks with different sampling designs that may be encountered in field experiments.
