Conservation implications of the evolutionary history and genetic diversity hotspots of the snowshoe hare.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 2014

Abstract excerpt

With climate warming, the ranges of many boreal species are expected to shift northward and to fragment in southern peripheral ranges. To understand the conservation implications of losing southern populations, we examined range-wide genetic diversity of the snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus), an important prey species that drives boreal ecosystem dynamics. We analysed microsatellite (8 loci) and mitochondrial DNA...
