The evolutionary origins of pesticide resistance (2018, background): “Interbreeding may include adaptive introgression, in which hybridisation between a ‘donor’ species and a target species is followed by back-crosses with the target species during which positive selection results in the retention of a specific gene from the donor species (Hedrick, 2013).”
Warring brothers: The complex interactions between wolves (Canis lupus) and dogs (Canis familiaris) in a conservation context (2014, neutral): “Some fossils morphologically identiﬁed as dog remains have been dated from ca. 30,000 years BP (Germonpré et al., 2009, 2012, 2013; Ovodov et al., 2011).”
Mitochondrial DNA as a Molecular Marker in Insect Ecology: Current Status and Future Prospects (2021, neutral): “This is termed adaptive introgression (Hedrick 2013).”
The Avian Hybrids Project: gathering the scientific literature on avian hybridization (2015, background): “…of different species, plays an important role in several evolutionary processes, such as adaptive trait transfer (Arnold 2006, Arnold et al. 2008, Hedrick 2013), adaptive radiations (Seehausen 2004), and the origin of new species (Mavarez & Linares 2008, Abbott et al. 2013, Schumer et al. 2014).”
