Historical population declines prompted significant genomic erosion in the northern and southern white rhinoceros ( <i>Ceratotherium simum</i> )

2020-05-11

Abstract excerpt

Large vertebrates are extremely sensitive to anthropogenic pressure, and their populations are declining fast. The white rhinoceros ( Ceratotherium simum ) is a paradigmatic case: this African megaherbivore suffered a remarkable population reduction in the last 150 years due to human activities. The two white rhinoceros subspecies, the northern (NWR) and the southern white rhinoceros (SWR), however, underwent opp...
