Different patterns of introgression in a three species hybrid zone among European cave salamanders

Abstract Hybrid zones occur where genetically distinct populations meet, mate and produce offspring with mixed ancestry. In Plethodontid salamanders, introgressive hybridization is a common phenomenon, where hybrids backcross with parental populations leading to the spread of new alleles into the pa...
