An evolutionary mechanism that keeps individuals of different species from interbreeding, even if they live in the same environment.
Temporal isolation is genetic isolation achieved due to temporal differences in breeding
isolation due to population groups reproducing at different times.
Temporal isolation is a prezygotic constraints. Two species that breed at different times of the day, season, or year cannot mix their gametes. Since the breeding times are different there is no chance of reproductive contact. This keeps different species separate.
Temporal My Boy !
1. When new species form.2. When a group is separated from the rest of its species.3. When members of the isolated group can no longer mate with the rest of species.
Temporal
reproductive, behavioral, geographic, and temporal
Temporal Isolation
1. Is there a way of reconciling the classical temporal definition of the maintenance with operational definition we use?
Temporal Isolation
there are six types which are below: 1. geographical isolation 2. ecological (habitat) isolation 3. behavioral (ethological) isolation 4. temporal isolation 5. structural (mechanical) isolation 6. gamete mortality (gamete isolation)
Behavioral Isolation is isolation caused by differences in courtship or mating behaviors.
