Abstract excerpt
High-density genotyping methods have revolutionized the field of population and conservation genetics in the past decade. To exploit the technological and analytical advances in the field, access to high-quality genetic material is a key component. However, access to such samples in endangered and rare animals is often challenging or even impossible. Here, we used a minimally invasive sampling method (MIS) in the...
