Rapid loss of genetic variation and increased inbreeding in small and isolated populations of Norwegian wild reindeer

2024-07-09

Abstract excerpt

Wildlife responses to habitat loss and fragmentation are a central concern in the management and conservation of biodiversity. Small and isolated populations are vulnerable, both due to demographic and genetic mechanisms, which are often linked. Thus, understanding how (changes in) genetic diversity, effective population sizes, and levels of inbreeding relate to population size and degree of isolation is key for d...
