Abstract
⺠We evaluate the effects of introduced captive-reared mallards on wild population. ⺠We genotyped 14 microsatellites, the MHC I locus and the control region. ⺠All genetic markers show differentiation between wild and captive mallards. ⺠Hybridization between captive and wild mallards is relatively common. ⺠Release of captive-reared mallards affects the genetic integrity of wild populations.
