- Abstract
- The competitive ability of hybrids, compared with their parental taxa, can cover a wide fitness range
from poor to superior. For example communities of the Daphnia galeata-hyalina-cucullata species
complex often show hybrid dominance. We tested whether taxa composition of 43 European lakes
inhabited by this species complex can be explained by habitat characteristics (e.g. size descriptors,
trophy level) or geography. We found that D. galeata occurs more frequently south of the Alps,
whereas D. hyalina and D. cucullata are found more in the north. Lakes with D. galeata dominance
had higher temperatures whereas D. hyalina dominance could be attributed to low phosphorus loads.
The dominance of F1-hybrids, however, was not explainable with current environmental variables. In
a subset of 28 lakes, we studied the impact of eutrophication history on F1-hybrid success. Lakes with
the highest trophic state in the past tended to be dominated by F1-hybrids. Our data demonstrate that
human-mediated habitat disturbance (eutrophication) has facilitated hybrid success and altered the
Daphnia taxon composition across lakes. At the same time, specific habitat conditions might provide
a refuge from hybridization for native genotypes. (literal)
