Effects of low-density urbanization on genetic structure in the Song Sparrow.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2020

Brewer Valerie N, Lane Samuel J, Sewall Kendra B, Mabry Karen E

Abstract excerpt

Urbanization fragments landscapes and can impede the movement of organisms through their environment, which can decrease population connectivity. Reduction in connectivity influences gene flow and allele frequencies, and can lead to a reduction in genetic diversity and the fixation of certain alleles, with potential negative effects for populations. Previous studies have detected effects of urbanization on...
