Environmental variation and rivers govern the structure of chimpanzee genetic diversity in a biodiversity hotspot.

BMC evolutionary biology - 21 Jan 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The mechanisms that underlie the diversification of tropical animals remain poorly understood, but new approaches that combine geo-spatial modeling with spatially explicit genetic data are providing fresh insights on this topic. Data about the diversification of tropical mammals remain particularly sparse, and vanishingly few opportunities exist to study endangered large mammals that increasingly...
