Essay

The role of hybridization and post-hybridization processes in the evolution of invertebrate model groups animals: earthworms and pulmonate mollusks are established. Significance of Pleistocene climatic changes in the formation of current genetic structure of their populations is defined. The original concept in which evolutionary outcome of these animals on land was accompanied with genome polyploidization by distant hybridization is suggested.
