Breeding site fidelity and winter admixture in a long-distance migrant, the tufted duck (Aythya fuligula).

Heredity - 1 Aug 2012

Liu Y, Keller I, Heckel G

Abstract excerpt

Long-distance migrants are, by definition, highly mobile but it is poorly understood if this leads to high rates of gene flow and an essentially panmictic global population structure. Genetic divergence in migratory species could be promoted, for example, by fidelity to distinct migratory pathways. In this study, we investigate the population genetic structure of tufted duck (Aythya fuligula), a long-distance...
