Many theoretical papers investigating the relationship between chromosomal change and speciation are found to have been based on erroneous data. For rather than considering those negatively heterotic, or at least potentially negatively heterotic rearrangements which can have a possible role in speciation, these papers have included substantial amounts of information on rearrangements which are not implicated in this process. Common forms of chromosomal repatterning such as heterochromatic addition and polymorphism are in this category. Their inclusion in theoretical studies, often cited as supporting or opposing a chromosomal involvement in speciation, invalidates these findings. A new approach is suggested.
许多研究染色体变化与物种形成之间关系的理论论文被发现是基于错误的数据。因为这些论文没有考虑那些具有负杂种优势，或至少可能具有负杂种优势的重排，而这些重排可能在物种形成中发挥作用，而是纳入了大量与这一过程无关的重排信息。常见的染色体重新模式化形式，如异染色质增加和多态性，就属于这一类。将它们纳入理论研究，常常被引用来支持或反对染色体在物种形成中的作用，这使得这些研究结果无效。建议采用一种新的方法。
