Anthropogenic Hybridization Contributes to the Naturalization of Introduced Domestic Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) at the Expense of Native New Zealand Gray Ducks (A. s. superciliosa)

Anthropogenic Hybridization Contributes to the Naturalization of Introduced Domestic Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) at the Expense of Native New Zealand Gray Ducks (A. s. superciliosa)

ABSTRACT Anthropogenically mediated hybridization can lead to several outcomes, with the most severe being hybrid swarms and the genetic extirpation of local populations. With the frequency of introductions by humans increasing, understanding the genetic consequences is critical for future conservat...
