Abstract
Rhinanthus major and R. minor are two annual plant species that are known to hybridize in nature and in which unilateral introgression is likely to occur. Here we used double-digest restriction site-associated DNA sequencing technology (ddRAD-seq) to detect 16,932 genome-wide SNPs in R. major and R. minor individuals from 9 populations. After screening these SNP markers across both species, we selected 1106 putative loci that contain diagnostic, species-specific SNPs, which can be used for assessing and monitoring hybridization and introgression between R. major and R. minor.
