High genetic variation in leopards indicates large and long-term stable effective population size.

Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2000

Spong G, Johansson M, Björklund M

Abstract excerpt

In this paper we employ recently developed statistical and molecular tools to analyse the population history of the Tanzanian leopard (Panthera pardus), a large solitary felid. Because of their solitary lifestyle little is known of their past or present population dynamics. Eighty-one individuals were scored at 18 microsatellite loci. Overall, levels of heterozygosity were high (0.77 +/- 0.03), with a small...
