Genetic diversity, population structure, effective population size and demographic history of the Finnish wolf population.

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2006

Aspi J, Roininen E, Ruokonen M, Kojola I, Vilà C

Abstract excerpt

The Finnish wolf population (Canis lupus) was sampled during three different periods (1996-1998, 1999-2001 and 2002-2004), and 118 individuals were genotyped with 10 microsatellite markers. Large genetic variation was found in the population despite a recent demographic bottleneck. No spatial population subdivision was found even though a significant negative relationship between genetic relatedness and...
