Conservation genetics of the wood ant, Formica lugubris, in a fragmented landscape.

Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2003

Gyllenstrand N, Seppä P

Abstract excerpt

Various intrinsic factors connected to the special features of sociality influence the persistence of social insect populations, including low effective population size, reduced amount of genetic variation easily leading to inbreeding depression, and spatially structured populations. In this work, we studied an isolated, small and fragmented population system of the red wood ant Formica lugubris, and evaluated...
