Island colonization and founder effects: the invasion of the Guadeloupe islands by ship rats (Rattus rattus).

Molecular ecology - 1 Sept 2005

Abdelkrim J, Pascal M, Samadi S

Abstract excerpt

The stepwise colonization of islands within an archipelago is typically punctuated by successive founder effects, with each newly founded population being a subsample of the gene pool of the source island. Thus, the genetic signature of successive bottlenecks should be detected when analysing the genetic structure between islands of an archipelago. To test this prediction, we investigated introduced ship rat...
