Genetic admixture predicts parasite intensity: evidence for increased hybrid performance in Darwin's tree finches
Hybridization can increase adaptive potential when enhanced genetic diversity or novel genetic combinations confer a fitness advantage, such as in the evolution of anti-parasitic mechanisms. Island systems are especially susceptible to invasive parasites due to the lack of defence mechanisms that us...
