雜交影響遺傳完整性

瀕危的黑耳礦鳥原本棲息於澳洲南部的林地,因農業發展而失去了棲息地。林地消失變成平原後吸引黃喉礦鳥遷入,導致出現兩種雀鳥雜交的情況。雜交會影響牠們基因的遺傳完整性,對黑耳礦鳥造成更多威脅。

Endangered black-eared miner inhabits woodland in South Australia, which has been cleared for agricultural purposes. the woodland turned into open landscape and attracted yellow-throated miner, and lead to two species cross-breeding. Breeding between two species affects the genetic integrity of them and created more risks to the black-eared miner.
