Noninvasive population genetics: a review of sample source, diet, fragment length and microsatellite motif effects on amplification success and genoty** error rates
Noninvasive population genetics has found many applications in ecology and conservation
biology. However, the technical difficulties inherent to the analysis of low quantities of DNA …

Controlling for non-independence in comparative analysis of patterns across populations within species
How do we quantify patterns (such as responses to local selection) sampled across multiple
populations within a single species? Key to this question is the extent to which populations …

Comparison of the Mantel test and alternative approaches for detecting complex multivariate relationships in the spatial analysis of genetic data
P Legendre, MJ FORTIN - Molecular ecology resources, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
The Mantel test is widely used to test the linear or monotonic independence of the elements
in two distance matrices. It is one of the few appropriate tests when the hypothesis under …

Sex differences in ageing in natural populations of vertebrates
TH Clutton-Brock, K Isvaran - Proceedings of the …, 2007 - royalsocietypublishing.org
In many long-lived vertebrates (including humans), adult males have shorter lifespans than
adult females, partly as a result of higher annual rates of mortality in males and partly owing …
