Whole-genome sequencing of the blue whale and other rorquals finds signatures for introgressive gene flow

Reconstructing the evolution of baleen whales (Mysticeti) has been problematic because morphological and genetic analyses have produced different scenarios. This might be caused by genomic admixture that may have taken place among some rorquals. We present the genomes of six whales, including the bl...
