Urban park characteristics, genetic variation, and historical demography of white-footed mouse ( <i>Peromyscus leucopus</i> ) populations in New York City
2014-02-20
Abstract excerpt
Severe fragmentation is a typical fate of native remnant habitats in cities, and urban wildlife with limited dispersal ability are predicted to lose genetic variation in isolated urban patches. However, little information exists on the characteristics of urban green spaces required to conserve genetic variation. In this study, we examine whether isolation in New York City (NYC) parks results in genetic bottlenecks...
