Study species
Six pink pigeon (Nesoenas mayeri ) individuals from the
captive-bred population of Jersey Zoo (n = 4) and Bristol Zoo
(n = 2) were genome sequenced. Birds shared common ancestry
within the last 3-6 generations (Supplementary Figure S1) and have a
high level of relatedness (F=0.064 to 0.346) (Supplementary Table 2),
which is typical of many zoo populations . See Supplementary Information
for further details.
