Experimental evaluation of the usefulness of microsatellite DNA for detecting demographic bottlenecks.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2000

Spencer C C, Neigel J E, Leberg P L

Abstract excerpt

Evolutionary and conservation biologists often use molecular markers to evaluate whether populations have experienced demographic bottlenecks that resulted in a loss of genetic variation. We evaluated the utility of microsatellites for detection of recent, severe bottlenecks and compared the amounts of genetic diversity lost in bottlenecks of different sizes. In experimental mesocosms, we established replicate...
