Genetic signature of a recent metapopulation bottleneck in the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) after intensive commercial exploitation in Mexico

2013-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Information on the demographic and genetic consequences of overexploitation of large marine vertebrates is often difficult to demonstrate on ecological time scales. We investigate the genetic impacts of recent commercial activities along Mexico’s Pacific coast on the nesting colonies of a long-lived vertebrate of conservation concern, the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea). This species was severely impac...
