Conservation genetics of two critically endangered island dwarf carnivores

2022-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Genetic diversity is crucial for conservation biology and for understanding evolutionary processes. Oceanic islands harbor a unique biota and high endemism, with populations frequently facing detrimental genetic processes (e.g. drift, bottlenecks). Human activities like habitat transformation further increase extinction risk of insular biota. Mammals comprise the most endangered group among insular fauna. Our aim...
