Unexpected heterozygosity in an island mouflon population founded by a single pair of individuals.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Feb 2007

Kaeuffer Renaud, Coltman David W, Chapuis Jean-Louis, Pontier Dominique, Réale Denis

Abstract excerpt

In population and conservation genetics, there is an overwhelming body of evidence that genetic diversity is lost over time in small populations. This idea has been supported by comparative studies showing that small populations have lower diversity than large populations. However, longitudinal studies reporting a decline in genetic diversity throughout the whole history of a given wild population are much less...
