Long-distance dispersal suppresses introgression of local alleles during range expansions.

Heredity - 1 Feb 2017

Abstract excerpt

During range expansions, even low levels of interbreeding can lead to massive introgression of local alleles into an invader's genome. Nonetheless, this pattern is not always observed in human populations. For instance, European Americans in North America are barely introgressed by Amerindian genes in spite of known contact and admixture. With coalescent spatially explicit simulations, we examined the impact of...
