| Abstract | As species ranges shift due to anthropogenic change, accurate detection of hybridization between species will become increasingly important for conservation biologists. The black-capped (Poecile atricapillus) and Carolina (Poecile carolinensis) chickadee hybrid zone is difficult to study because the parental species possess similar morphologies and song is an unreliable species identifier. Further, the hybrid zone is moving northward rapidly due to environmental change. Here, we present 10 single nucleotide polymorphism markers developed from black-capped and Carolina chickadee transcriptome sequences. This marker set coupled with species-specific restriction enzyme digestion allows fast, easy genotyping of pure species and hybrid individuals within the hybrid zone. |
