Genetic similarity of island populations of tent caterpillars during successive outbreaks.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2014

Franklin Michelle T, Myers Judith H, Cory Jenny S

Abstract excerpt

Cyclic or fluctuating populations experience regular periods of low population density. Genetic bottlenecks during these periods could give rise to temporal or spatial genetic differentiation of populations. High levels of movement among increasing populations, however, could ameliorate any differences and could also synchronize the dynamics of geographically separated populations. We use microsatellite markers...
