Relatedness and other finescale population genetic analyses in the threatened eastern box turtle (Terrapene c. carolina) suggest unexpectedly high vagility with important conservation implications
2014-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Genetic analyses of populations are essential to the conservation of threatened and cryptic taxa such as Chelonians. Turtles and tortoises are among the most imperiled vertebrate taxa worldwide, yet many of the natural history traits remain unknown leaving management decisions ill- or improperly informed. The eastern box turtle Terrapene c. carolina is no exception, with many gaps in our knowledge about traits suc...
