Inheritance patterns of plumage coloration in common buzzards Buteo buteo do not support a one-locus two-allele model

Balancing selection is a major mechanism to maintain colour polymorphisms over evolutionary time. In common buzzards, variation in plumage colour was reportedly maintained by a heterozygote advantage: heterozygote intermediates had higher fitness than homozygote light and dark morphs. Here, we chall...
