Constraints to gene flow increase the risk of genome erosion in the Ngorongoro Crater lion population
Abstract Small, isolated populations are at greater risk of genome erosion than larger populations. Successful conservation efforts may lead to demographic recovery and mitigate the negative genetic effects of bottlenecks. However, constrained gene flow can hamper genomic recovery. Here, we use popu...
