Hybrid Drosophila genomes rapidly purge minority ancestry but repeatedly retain selected regions

Xinjun Zhang, Swapan Mallick, Nadin Rohland, Nick J. Patterson, David C. Page, David E. Reich, Jacob L. Mueller

The paper tracks genome-wide evolutionary dynamics in hybrid Drosophila populations, showing rapid purging of minority ancestry and repeated retention of selected regions through adaptive introgression.
