Abstract excerpt
Closely related taxa often exhibit mitonuclear discordance attributed to introgression of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), yet few studies have considered the underlying causes of mtDNA introgression. Here we test for demographic versus adaptive processes as explanations for mtDNA introgression in three subspecies of the intermediate horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus affinis). We generated sequences of 1692 nuclear genes and...
