Long-Term Reciprocal Gene Flow in Wild and Domestic Geese Reveals Complex Domestication History

Hybridization has frequently been observed between wild and domestic species and can substantially impact genetic diversity of both counterparts. Geese show some of the highest levels of interspecific hybridization across all bird orders, and two of the goose species in the genus Anser have been dom...
