Summary:[...]in reinforcement, speciation itself can be thought of as an adaptive response to selection. [...]analysis of reinforcement clarifies the interactions between levels of reproductive isolation that occur at different stages in the life cycle. [...]of whether reinforcement has been a common pathway in speciation, its relevance may be increasing.
