Mating system and genetic variance in a polygynous mustelid, the European polecat.

Genes & genetic systems - 1 Aug 2001

Lodé T

Abstract excerpt

The population genetic implications of mating system were investigated in European polecat Mustela putorius populations from western France, combining radiotracking survey and allozyme variation analysis. Mating period occurred from February to June and polecats showed a strategy of successive polygyny, a male consorting with 1.44 females during a brief period (2.9 days). Relatedness was largely sex biased,...
