Abstract excerpt
As the biosphere faces accelerating environmental disruption including climate change and the prospect of an anthropogenically-driven mass extinction, understanding the mechanisms that enable species to adapt has become increasingly urgent. One mechanism attracting growing attention is adaptive introgression, the transfer of beneficial genetic variation between closely related species. Although frequently invoked...
