Explaining spatial heterogeneity in population dynamics and genetics from spatial variation in resources for a large herbivore.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Contasti Adrienne L, Tissier Emily J, Johnstone Jill F, McLoughlin Philip D

Abstract excerpt

Fine-scale spatial variation in genetic relatedness and inbreeding occur across continuous distributions of several populations of vertebrates; however, the basis of observed variation is often left untested. Here we test the hypothesis that prior observations of spatial patterns in genetics for an island population of feral horses (Sable Island, Canada) were the result of spatial variation in population...
