Genetic structure of fragmented populations of red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) in the UK.

Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 1999

Barratt E M, Gurnell J, Malarky G, Deaville R, Bruford M W

Abstract excerpt

The relationships among 207 squirrels from 12 locations in the UK and three in mainland Europe were examined using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region sequence. Twenty-six haplotypes were detected, many of which were population specific. Eighty per cent of the populations analysed contained two or more haplotypes. Hierarchical analysis of molecular variance showed the majority of genetic variation to be...
