The genetic pattern of population threat and loss: a case study of butterflies.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jan 2004

Schmitt T, Hewitt G M

Abstract excerpt

Recent decreases in biodiversity in Europe are commonly thought to be due to land use and climate change. However, the genetic diversity of populations is also seen as one essential factor for their fitness. Genetic diversity in species across the continent of Europe has been recognized as being in part a consequence of ice age isolation in southern refugia and postglacial colonization northwards, and these...
