Genetic diversity and population structure of Tasmanian devils, the largest marsupial carnivore.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2004

Jones Menna E, Paetkau David, Geffen Eli, Moritz Craig

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity and population structure were investigated across the core range of Tasmanian devils (Sarcophilus laniarius; Dasyuridae), a wide-ranging marsupial carnivore restricted to the island of Tasmania. Heterozygosity (0.386-0.467) and allelic diversity (2.7-3.3) were low in all subpopulations and allelic size ranges were small and almost continuous, consistent with a founder effect. Island effects and...
