Finding these independent further gen. admixed pops (here 🔴) leads us to highlight the eco-evo consequences of extensive mosaic hybrid zones, within which 🔴 face an array of ecological and intrinsic selection pressures (👀 literature on +/- effects of 🐜 hybridisation). 3/5
The balance of these selection pressures affects the hybrids' future & is a great avenue for future research. Our approach, combining genomic, morphological and climatic data, wouldn't have been possible w-out the wonderful collaboration and combined expertise of all authors. 4/5
Thank you so much @prrnhd , Bernhard Seifert, Pekka Punttila, Roland Schultz, Mirkka Jones, Jukka Sirén, Heikki Helanterä, and Jonna Kulmuni, as well as Molecular Ecology and the reviewers. Now time to celebrate. 🥂 5/5
