Sex-biased dispersal in sperm whales: contrasting mitochondrial and nuclear genetic structure of global populations.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Feb 1999

Lyrholm T, Leimar O, Johanneson B, Gyllensten U

Abstract excerpt

The social organization of most mammals is characterized by female philopatry and male dispersal. Such sex-biased dispersal can cause the genetic structure of populations to differ between the maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the bi-parental nuclear genome. Here we report on the...
