“…Intentional introgression has previously been applied as a restoration strategy for both animals (Benson et al, 2011; Smith, Peterson, & Houston, 2003) and plants (Hamilton & Miller, 2016; Suarez‐Gonzalez, Lexer, & Cronk, 2018). However, most of these examples involve the introgression of broad genetic diversity into populations that were either severely restricted or locally extirpated (Hostetler et al, 2010; Kaulfuß & Reisch, 2017; Weisenberger, Weller, & Sakai, 2014). Uncontrolled introgression of multiple traits may result in various mixtures of desired, neutral, and undesired outcomes.…”
