Effects of a recent founding event and intrinsic population dynamics on genetic diversity in an ungulate population

2005-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Maintenance of genetic diversity has recently become a management goal for a number of species, due to its importance for present and future population viability. Genetic drift, primarily through differential reproductive success and inbreeding, can accelerate the loss of genetic diversity in recently recovered populations. We attempt to quantify the consequences of these factors on the genetic diversity contained...
