Abstract excerpt
Genomic data have the potential to inform high resolution landscape genetic and biological conservation studies that go far beyond recent mitochondrial and microsatellite analyses. We characterize the relationships of populations of the foothill yellow-legged frog, Rana boylii, a declining, "sentinel" species for stream ecosystems throughout its range in California and Oregon. We generated RADseq data and applied...
