Hybridization is a route to speciation that occurs widely across the eukaryote tree of life. The success of allopolyploids (hybrid species with increased ploidy) and homoploid hybrids (with unchanged ploidy) is well documented. However, their formation and establishment is not straightforward, with a suite of near-instantaneous and longer term biological repercussions faced by the new species. Central to these challenges is the rewiring of gene regulatory networks following the merger of distinct genomes inherited from both parental species. Research on the evolution of hybrid gene expression has largely involved studies on a single hybrid species or a few gene families. Here, we present the first standardized transcriptome-wide study exploring the fates of genes following hybridization across three kingdoms: animals, plants and fungi. Within each kingdom, we pair an allopolyploid system with a closely related homoploid hybrid to decouple the influence of increased ploidy from genome merger. Genome merger, not changes in ploidy, has the greatest effect on posthybridization expression patterns across all study systems. Strikingly, we find that differentially expressed genes in parent species preferentially switch to more similar expression in hybrids across all kingdoms, likely as a consequence of regulatory trans-acting cross-talk within the hybrid nucleus. We also highlight the prevalence of gene loss or silencing among extremely differentially expressed genes in hybrid species across all kingdoms. These shared patterns suggest that the evolutionary process of hybridization leads to common high-level expression outcomes, regardless of the particular species or kingdom.
