#Hybridization is frequent in the wild but are the outcomes predictable and if so, how quickly? @prrnhd @jonna_kulmuni &co reveal correlated sorting of genetic variation across 3 independent hybrid #WoodAnt populations in <50 generations #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/3GaO5uL
Rapid and predictable genome evolution across three hybrid ant populations

Hybridization between species is frequent in the wild but it is unclear when admixture events lead to predictable outcomes and if so, at what timescale. This study shows that selection contributes to correlated sorting of genetic variation across three independent hybrid wood ant populations in less than 50 generations.
