Does habitat fragmentation reduce fitness and adaptability? A case study of the common frog (Rana temporaria).

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2007

Johansson Markus, Primmer Craig R, Merilä Juha

Abstract excerpt

Studies examining the effects of anthropogenic habitat fragmentation on both neutral and adaptive genetic variability are still scarce. We compared tadpole fitness-related traits (viz. survival probability and body size) among populations of the common frog (Rana temporaria) from fragmented (F) and continuous (C) habitats that differed significantly in population sizes (C > F) and genetic diversity (C > F) in...
