Dear EvolDir members,

I received many replies to my inquiry about the the Muller 1942 last
week on EvolDir (see below for original post). Thanks to all of you! Now
I have what I was looking for.

However, I found it important to give some more info back to you: It
turns out that the full citation in something like:

Hermann Joseph Muller, "Isolating mechanisms, evolution and temperature,"
in Temperature, Evolution, Development, ed. Theodosius Dobzhansky, vol. 6,
Biological Symposia: A Series of Volumes Devoted to Current Symposia in
the Field of Biology (Lancaster, PA: Jaques Cattell Press, 1942), 71-125.

That is a book section (in a book of a whole series of books, 12 volumes),
formally, and not a journal article. Hence there seems to be some error
propagation with this citation, due to rough shortening of references
in some journals. Just in case you would like to know ;-).

Cheers,
Robert

ORIGINAL POST:

Dear colleagues,

When talking about Dobzhansky-Muller-Incompatibilities (DMIs) people
usually cite one or two works of Dobzhansky and one of Muller, 1942. The
reference is:

MULLER HJ, 1942, Isolating mechanisms, evolution and
temperature. Biol. Symp. 6:71-125.

However, I just can't find this anywhere. Is there anyone who can
help me trace it? The journal abbreviation is (to my taste) a bit
ambiguous. Scopus, ISI, Google Scholar, or just Google itself
fail to find it. All I get is articles citing the Muller (1942) over
and over again (> 400 citations in Google scholar).

Cheers,
Robert
