The meaning of wild: Genetic and adaptive consequences from large-scale releases of domestic mallards
The translocation of individuals around the world is leading to rising incidences of
anthropogenic hybridization, particularly between domestic and wild congeners. We apply a …

Assessing changes in genomic divergence following a century of human‐mediated secondary contact among wild and captive‐bred ducks
Along with manipulating habitat, the direct release of domesticated individuals into the wild
is a practice used worldwide to augment wildlife populations. We test between possible …

ddRAD‐seq data reveal significant genome‐wide population structure and divergent genomic regions that distinguish the mallard and close relatives in North America
Recently evolved species typically share genetic variation across their genomes due to
incomplete lineage sorting and/or ongoing gene flow. Given only subtle allele frequency …

Identifying hybrids & the genomics of hybridization: Mallards & American black ducks of Eastern North America
Resolving evolutionary relationships and establishing population structure depends on
molecular diagnosability that is often limited for closely related taxa. Here, we use 3,200 …

Admixture between released and wild game birds: a changing genetic landscape in European mallards (Anas platyrhynchos)
Disruption of naturally evolved spatial patterns of genetic variation and local adaptations is a
growing concern in wildlife management and conservation. During the last decade, releases …

Silent domestication of wildlife in the Anthropocene: The mallard as a case study
In the Anthropocene, human activities have been a dominant force affecting wildlife, natural
habitats, and climate worldwide. Over time, increasing incidences of wildlife-human …

Current and potential threats to Nordic duck populations—a horizon scanning exercise
We review the current and future threats to duck populations that breed, stage, moult and/or
winter in the Nordic countries. Migratory duck species are sensitive indicators of their …

Habitat management favouring hunted waterbird species prevents distribution changes in response to climate warming
Climate warming is driving species to shift their geographical distribution poleward to track
suitable climatic conditions. Two strategies have been suggested to help species respond to …

Persistence of an endangered native duck, feral mallards, and multiple hybrid swarms across the main Hawaiian Islands
Interspecific hybridization is recognized as an important process in the evolutionary
dynamics of both speciation and the reversal of speciation. However, our understanding of …
