Chronicle of an extinction foretold: genetic properties of an extremely small population of Iberolacerta monticola

2012-02-01

Abstract excerpt

The fragmentation and destruction of natural habitats by human intervention is producing a continuous and inexorable reduction of the size of populations in multitude of species all over the world. Small and isolated populations face higher extinction risks, due to demographic and environmental stochasticity, and also because of several genetic threats, among which inbreeding is considered the most important one....
