Extensive introgression among strongylocentrotid sea urchins revealed by phylogenomics
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Gametic isolation is thought to play an important role in the evolution of reproductive isolation in broadcast‐spawning marine invertebrates. However, it is unclear whether gametic isolation commonly evolves early in the speciation process or only ...

Interfertile oaks in an island environment: I. High nuclear genetic differentiation and high degree of chloroplast DNA sharing between Q. alnifolia and Q. coccifera in Cyprus. A multipopulation study [PDF]
European Journal of Forest Research 130 (2011): pp. 543-555, 2013 The evergreen Quercus alnifolia and Q. coccifera form the only interfertile pair of oak species growing in Cyprus. Hybridization between the two species has already been observed and studied morphologically. However, little evidence exists about the extent of genetic introgression.

Avian introgression in the genomic era [PDF]
Avian Research, 2017 Abstract Introgression, the incorporation of genetic material from one (sub)species into the gene pool of another by means of hybridization and backcrossing, is a common phenomenon in birds and can provide important insights into the speciation process.

The Spatial Signature of Introgression After a Biological Invasion With Hybridization
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The accumulation of genome-wide molecular data has emphasized the important role of hybridization in the evolution of many organisms, which may carry introgressed genomic segments resulting from past admixture events with other taxa.

The Use and Limitations of Exome Capture to Detect Novel Variation in the Hexaploid Wheat Genome
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 The bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) pangenome is a patchwork of variable regions, including translocations and introgressions from progenitors and wild relatives.

Development and characterization of Brassica juncea fruticulosa introgression lines exhibiting resistance to mustard aphid [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Mustard aphid is a major pest of Brassica oilseeds. No source for aphid resistance is presently available in Brassica juncea . A wild crucifer, Brassica fruticulosa is known to be resistant to mustard aphid. An artificially synthesized amphiploid, AD-4 (B. fruticulosa x B. rapa var. brown sarson) was developed for use as a bridge species to

Adaptive Introgression: The Seeds of Resistance [PDF]
Current Biology, 2011 Populations of the European house mouse have acquired resistance to anticoagulant pesticides from a closely related species. This discovery improves our understanding of the circumstances in which interspecific genetic exchange is likely to facilitate adaptation.
