Genomic and morphological data shed light on the complexities of shared ancestry between closely related duck species

Abstract Causes for genomic and morphological similarities among recently radiated species are often multifaceted and are further convoluted among species that readily interbreed. Here, we couple genomic and morphological trait comparisons to test the extent that ancestry and gene flow explain the r...
