The seabird paradox: dispersal, genetic structure and population dynamics in a highly mobile, but philopatric albatross species.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2008

Milot Emmanuel, Weimerskirch Henri, Bernatchez Louis

Abstract excerpt

The philopatric behaviour of albatrosses has intrigued biologists due to the high mobility of these seabirds. It is unknown how albatrosses maintain a system of fragmented populations without frequent dispersal movements, in spite of the long-term temporal heterogeneity in resource distribution at sea. We used both genetic (amplified fragment length polymorphism) and capture-mark-recapture (CMR) data to identify...
