Phenotypic divergence despite low genetic differentiation in house sparrow populations.

Scientific reports - 10 Jan 2018

Ben Cohen Shachar, Dor Roi

Abstract excerpt

Studying patterns of phenotypic variation among populations can shed light on the drivers of evolutionary processes. The house sparrow (Passer domesticus) is one of the world's most ubiquitous bird species, as well as a successful invader. We investigated phenotypic variation in house sparrow populations across a climatic gradient and in relation to a possible scenario of an invasion. We measured variation in...
