Genome-wide markers reveal a complex evolutionary history involving divergence and introgression in the Abert’s squirrel (Sciurus aberti) species group

Abstract Background Genetic introgression between divergent lineages is now considered more common than previously appreciated, with potentially important consequences for adaptation and speciation. Introgression is often asymmetric between populations and patterns can vary for different types of lo...
