Parallel evolution in sympatric, hybridizing species: performance of Colias butterflies on their introduced host plants

2007-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Shared ancestry and introgression can contribute to genetic similarity between hybridizing species, and it is generally difficult to disentangle these causes. However, shared ancestry plays a more limited role in traits that have recently undergone parallel directional selection in the two species, permitting the role of introgression to be better understood. The butterflies Colias eurytheme (Boisduval) and Colias...
