Southern introgression increases adaptive immune gene variability in northern range margin populations of Fire‐bellied toad

Abstract Northern range margin populations of the European fire‐bellied toad (Bombina bombina) have rapidly declined during recent decades. Extensive agricultural land use has fragmented the landscape, leading to habitat disruption and loss, as well as eutrophication of ponds. In Northern Germany (S...
