Local adaptation from afar: migratory bird populations diverge in the initiation of reproductive timing while wintering in sympatry

Abstract: The initiation of reproduction in many seasonally breeding animals is controlled by photoperiod and tends to be clinal: populations at higher latitudes breed later than those at lower latitudes, often reflecting a higher photoperiodic threshold. Migratory animals presumably time reproduction to match conditions at their breeding grounds, at least in part, by cues perceived on their wintering grounds. We asked how closely related dark-eyed junco ( Junco hyemalis ) populations that overwi… Show more

“…Median latitudinal and distance estimates were calculated from geographic assignment probability maps by extracting the geographic cell coordinates with the highest posterior probability (top 10%) using the raster package (Hijmans, 2019). Migration distance was defined as the distance from the release site to the centroid of the estimated breeding polygon (Becker et al, 2022; Wanamaker et al, 2020).…”

“…Wintering juncos in the Appalachians include migrant and resident subspecies[ 14 ], and we earlier determined this rickettsiae-positive junco to be migratory ( J. h. hyemalis )[ 9 ]. Using feather hydrogen isotopes and geographic assignment models (Figure S1)[ 15 ], we estimated the most likely breeding site of the robin to be the Great Lakes (459 km median migration distance). In contrast, estimated breeding sites of the junco ranged from the western USA to Manitoba in Canada (2,377 km median migration distance; Figure 1 B).…”

“…Most robins wintering in Indiana remain year-round or migrate elsewhere to breed, while wintering juncos in the Appalachians include migrant and resident subspecies; we earlier determined this positive bird as migratory ( J. h. hyemalis ) (7). Using feather hydrogen isotopes and geographic assignment (Figure S1) (10), we estimated the most likely breeding site of the robin to be the Great Lakes (e.g., Wisconsin; 459 km median migration distance), whereas that of the junco ranged from the western USA to Manitoba in Canada (2,377 km median migration distance; Fig. 1B).…”
