Detecting and quantifying introgression in hybridized populations: simplifying assumptions yield overconfidence and uncertainty.

Abstract excerpt

A growing threat to the conservation of many native species worldwide is genetic introgression from non-native species. Although improved molecular genetic techniques are increasing the availability of species-diagnostic markers for many species, efficient field sampling design and reliable data interpretation require accurate estimates of uncertainty associated with the detection of non-native alleles and the...
