Dating the genetic bottleneck of the African cheetah.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 15 Apr 1993

Menotti-Raymond M, O'Brien S J

Abstract excerpt

The cheetah is unusual among fields in exhibiting near genetic uniformity at a variety of loci previously screened to measure population genetic diversity. It has been hypothesized that a demographic crash or population bottleneck in the recent history of the species is causal to the observed monomorphic profiles for nuclear coding loci. The timing of a bottleneck is difficult to assess, but certain aspects of...
