Fine-scale population genetic structure in a fission-fusion society.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2008

Abstract excerpt

Nonrandom patterns of mating and dispersal create fine-scale genetic structure in natural populations - especially of social mammals - with important evolutionary and conservation genetic consequences. Such structure is well-characterized for typical mammalian societies; that is, societies where social group composition is stable, dispersal is male-biased, and males form permanent breeding associations in just...
