Barn swallows before barns: population histories and intercontinental colonization.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 May 2006

Zink Robert M, Pavlova Alexandra, Rohwer Sievert, Drovetski Sergei V

Abstract excerpt

The barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) is one of most widely distributed swallows, owing in part to its recent switch from natural nest sites to human structures. We conducted phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial (mt) and nuclear DNA to explore the recent evolutionary history of this species. Strongly supported mtDNA clades corresponded to Europe, Asia and North America plus the Baikal region of Asia. Analysis of...
