Population genomics of the Anthropocene: urbanization is negatively associated with genome-wide variation in white-footed mouse populations

2015-08-20

Abstract excerpt

Urbanization results in pervasive habitat fragmentation and reduces standing genetic variation through bottlenecks and drift. Loss of genome-wide variation may ultimately reduce the evolutionary potential of animal populations experiencing rapidly changing conditions. In this study, we examined genome-wide variation among 23 white-footed mouse ( Peromyscus leucopus ) populations sampled along an urbanization grad...
