Genetic structure and signature of population decrease in the critically endangered freshwater cyprinid Chondrostoma lusitanicum
2008-08-01
Abstract excerpt
The endemic and critically endangered cyprinid Chondrostoma lusitanicum has a very restricted distribution range. In order to estimate genetic diversity, characterize population structure and infer the demographic history, we examined six microsatellite loci and cytochrome b (mtDNA) sequences from samples taken throughout C. lusitanicum's geographical range. Estimates of genetic diversity were low in all samples (...
