The Mallard duck can cross breed with 63 other species and is posing a severe threat to the genetic integrity of indigenous waterfowl.

Hybridization and introgression of this kind can put the genetic integrity of a species at severe risk, especially when the population is already small.

What recombination does take place maintains genetic integrity rather than maintaining diversity.

Despite its apparent mutability,E. coli does have the power to protect its genetic integrity.

This will help reduce the selective pressure of an introduced environment, and preserve the genetic integrity of each strain.

With no other bees within range, Brother Adam could maintain their genetic integrity and develop desirable traits.

Professor Tomo Tanaka studies the processes by which eukaryotic cells maintain their genetic integrity.

But until we do some more tests, I can't promise genetic integrity.

If these genes find their way into the wild, the genetic integrity of wild herds could be damaged.

The genetic integrity of some wild strains, and at least one species, is being threatened by interbreeding and hybridization.
