Article Synopsis
- The study examines the genetic complexities behind the invasion of bighead and silver carp in the Mississippi River Basin, focusing on hybridization and genetic adaptation.
- It involved sequencing the genomes of these carps and their hybrids, revealing high genetic diversity and genomic similarities between the species, along with traits linked to environmental adaptation.
- The findings suggest that the carp's unique genetic features facilitated their initial invasion, while hybridization helped them expand their range, presenting a new perspective on the genetic paradox of biological invasions.
