Adaptive introgression in animals: examples and comparison to new mutation and standing variation as sources of adaptive variation.

Abstract excerpt

Adaptive genetic variation has been thought to originate primarily from either new mutation or standing variation. Another potential source of adaptive variation is adaptive variants from other (donor) species that are introgressed into the (recipient) species, termed adaptive introgression. Here...
