Population genetics and demography unite ecology and evolution
The interplay of ecology and evolution has been a rich area of research for decades. A
surge of interest in this area was catalyzed by the observation that evolution by natural …

Non‐invasive methods for monitoring weasels: emerging technologies and priorities for future research
Abstract Weasels (genus Mustela and Neogale) are of management concern as declining
native species in some regions and invasive species in others. Regardless of the need to …

Geographical range size and latitude predict population genetic structure in a global survey
While genetic diversity within species is influenced by both geographical distance and
environmental gradients, it is unclear what other factors are likely to promote population …

A plea for simultaneously considering matrix quality and local environmental conditions when analysing landscape impacts on effective dispersal
FJ Pflüger, N Balkenhol - 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Landscape genetics has tremendous potential for enhancing our understanding about
landscape effects on effective dispersal and resulting genetic structures. However, the vast …

Comparing direct (live-trap**) and indirect (camera-trap**) approaches for estimating the abundance of weasels (Mustela nivalis)
Abstract Information on the presence and abundance of a species is crucial for
understanding key ecological processes but also for effective protection and population …

Kin aggression and resource availability influence phenotype-dependent dispersal in a passerine bird
Understanding the causes of dispersal is important as it strongly influences population
dynamics and evolution. However, context dependency of dispersal decisions, such as …

Functional traits in red flour beetles: the dispersal phenotype is associated with leg length but not body size nor metabolic rate
Individuals vary in their ability to disperse. Much of this variation can be described by
covarying phenotypic traits that are related to dispersal (constituting the 'dispersal …

Applications of landscape genetics to connectivity research in terrestrial animals
Landscape genetic studies have focused on terrestrial animals more than any other
taxonomic group. This chapter focuses on applications of landscape genetics for …

The influence of habitat structure on genetic differentiation in red fox populations in north-eastern Poland
The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) has the widest global distribution among terrestrial carnivore
species, occupying most of the Northern Hemisphere in its native range. Because it carries …

Long-term dynamics of phenotype-dependent dispersal within a wild bird population
Dispersers are not a random subset of the source population, and there is considerable
evidence that they differ from non-dispersers in a number of phenotypic traits. However, it is …
