Disease swamps molecular signatures of genetic-environmental associations to abiotic factors in Tasmanian devil ( <i>Sarcophilus harrisii</i> ) populations

2019-09-24

Abstract excerpt

Landscape genomics studies focus on identifying candidate genes under selection via spatial variation in abiotic environmental variables, but rarely by biotic factors such as disease. The Tasmanian devil ( Sarcophilus harrisii ) is found only on the environmentally heterogeneous island of Tasmania and is threatened with extinction by a nearly 100% fatal, transmissible cancer, devil facial tumor disease (DFTD). De...
