Genetic diversity and differentiation of Kermode bear populations.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2002

Marshall H D, Ritland K

Abstract excerpt

The Kermode bear is a white phase of the North American black bear that occurs in low to moderate frequency on British Columbia's mid-coast. To investigate the genetic uniqueness of populations containing the white phase, and to ascertain levels of gene flow among populations, we surveyed 10 highly polymorphic microsatellite loci, assayed from trapped bear hairs. A total of 216 unique bear genotypes, 18 of which...
