Monitoring introgression in European wildcats in the Swiss Jura

2014-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Introgression is an important evolutionary force, which can lead to adaptation and speciation on one hand, but on the other hand also to genetic extinction. It is in the latter sense that introgression is a major conservation concern, especially when domestic species reproduce with their rare wild relatives. Hence, monitoring introgression in natural populations subject to hybridization is crucial to elucidate the...
