Founder effect in an island population of bighorn sheep.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2001

Hedrick P W, Gutierrez-Espeleta G A, Lee R N

Abstract excerpt

The Tiburon Island population of desert bighorn sheep has increased in size from 20 founders in 1975 to approximately 650 in 1999. This population is now the only population being used as the source stock for transplantations throughout northern Mexico. To evaluate the genetic variation in this p...
