Genetic rescue and the maintenance of native ancestry

2019-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Genetic rescue (GR) is an important tool in conservation biology for the management of highly inbred populations. However, GR comes at a potential cost: the reduction in native genomic content. The degree to which adaptive evolution for new immigrant alleles lead to complete or partial replacement of the native genome, depends on recombination rates, genome size, effective population sizes, and distributions of fi...
