Ancient mitogenomes unravel massive genetic diversity loss during near extinction of Alpine ibex
2021-11-08
Abstract excerpt
Population bottlenecks can have dramatic consequences for the health and long-term survival of a species. A recent bottleneck event can also largely obscure our understanding of standing variation prior to the contraction. Historic population sizes can be modeled based on extant genomics, however uncertainty increases with the severity of the bottleneck. Integrating ancient genomes provides a powerful complement t...
