Defining population boundaries: use of three Bayesian approaches with microsatellite data from British natterjack toads (Bufo calamita).

Abstract excerpt

Defining boundaries between populations is often difficult in the absence of information about current levels of gene flow. Such definitions can be important, however, both for the understanding of population dynamics and for conservation planning. Recently developed Bayesian methods for analysing genetic data now provide a powerful approach to this problem. Natterjack toads Bufo calamita are endangered in...
