Genetic determinants of the expansion of eastern grey squirrel populations across Europe

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Invasive alien species have long been recognized as a major global threat to biodiversity and ecosystems. A key question related to biological invasions is whether some species or populations within species are more invasive than others and if so, what are the biological and ecological factors responsible for such differences. In this project, I focus on a highly invasive mammalian species, the American eastern gr...
