Admixture mapping in a hybrid zone reveals loci associated with avian feather coloration.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 15 Nov 2017

Brelsford Alan, Toews David P L, Irwin Darren E

Abstract excerpt

Identifying the genetic bases for colour patterns has provided important insights into the control and expression of pigmentation and how these characteristics influence fitness. However, much more is known about the genetic bases for traits based on melanin pigments than for traits based on another major class of pigments, carotenoids. Here, we use natural admixture in a hybrid zone between Audubon's and myrtle...
