Colonization and dispersal in a social species, the Bechstein's bat (Myotis bechsteinii).

Molecular ecology - 1 Nov 2005

Kerth Gerald, Petit Eric

Abstract excerpt

Metapopulation genetic models consider that colonization and dispersal are distinct behaviours. However, whether colonization and dispersal indeed reflect different biological processes in nature is unclear. One possibility to test this assumption is to assess patterns of autosomal and mitochondrial genetic structure in species with strict female philopatry, such as the communally breeding Bechstein's bat. In...
