Increase of heterozygosity in a growing population of lesser kestrels.

Biology letters - 22 Oct 2007

Ortego Joaquín, Aparicio José Miguel, Calabuig Gustau, Cordero Pedro J

Abstract excerpt

The lesser kestrel (Falco naumanni) suffered a sharp population decline over much of its European distribution range in the middle of the twentieth century. Still declining in some areas, the species has recently experienced a notable population recovery in certain regions. We examined the geneti...
