Variable outcomes of hybridization between declining Alosa alosa and Alosa fallax

Abstract: Hybridization dynamics between co‐occurring species in environments where human‐mediated changes take place are important to quantify for furthering our understanding of human impacts on species evolution and for informing management. The allis shad Alosa alosa (Linnaeus, 1758) and twaite shad Alosa fallax (Lacépède, 1803), two clupeids sister species, have been severely impacted by human activities across Europe. The shrinkage of A. alosa distribution range along with the decline of the remaining populations'… Show more

“…Genomic sequencing methods, such as RADseq, cover a larger proportion of the genome compared to microsatellites and can be used to develop diagnostic markers. For instance, Taillebois et al, ( 2020 ) developed 77 species‐specific SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) that could detect hybrids and backcrosses between allis shad ( Alosa alosa ) and twaite shad ( A. fallax ) up to the third generation. Similar marker sets and sequencing protocols have been developed for other study systems (Feulner & Seehausen, 2019 ; Vaux et al, 2021 ; Wielstra et al, 2016 ) and show that conservationists do not always need whole genome sequencing data to reconstruct the entire genomic landscape.…”

“…Inter-specific gene flow between rare species and the allied taxa that are commonly distributed may result in the increased extinction risk at least locally for the rare species [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. Hybridization may lead to increased extinction risk through demographic swamping, i.e., reduced population growth rate, driven by outbreeding depression and/or genetic swamping where the parental lineages are replaced by the hybrids [ 2 , 5 ].…”

“…Mounting evidence indicates that these management practices generally fail at conserving native diversity after admixture had already occurred (Gil et al, 2016 ; Muñoz‐Fuentes et al, 2007 ; Vincenzi et al, 2012 ). This is possibly due to the lack of knowledge regarding reproductive isolation mechanisms (Bajec et al, 2015 ; Berrebi, Poteaux, et al, 2000 ; Iacolina et al, 2019 ; Taillebois et al, 2020 ), which could help to build more efficient and evolutionary‐inspired management strategies. Identification of both pre‐ and postzygotic reproductive barriers should thus be a prerequisite to any management decisions to avoid counter‐productive results.…”
