Spatial population genomics of the brown rat (Rattus norvegicus) in New York City.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jan 2018

Combs Matthew, Puckett Emily E, Richardson Jonathan, Mims Destiny, Munshi-South Jason

Abstract excerpt

Human commensal species such as rodent pests are often widely distributed across cities and threaten both infrastructure and public health. Spatially explicit population genomic methods provide insights into movements for cryptic pests that drive evolutionary connectivity across multiple spatial scales. We examined spatial patterns of neutral genomewide variation in brown rats (Rattus norvegicus) across...
