Incipient genetic differentiation of the African buffalo, Syncerus caffer populations: Is fencing playing a role?

2025-01-09

Abstract excerpt

Fences are increasingly used globally as a management tool in conservation to reduce wildlife depredations, disease transmission, and wildlife mortality. There are a limited number of studies on the genetic effects of perimeter fencing of protected areas on megaherbivores. Using population genetic analyses on 226 sequences of a 400 bp fragment of the mtDNA Dloop from 10 East African buffalo populations (3 fenced a...
