Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale (2007)
Journal Article
Hoelzel, A., Hey, J., Dahlheim, M., Nicholson, C., Burkanov, V., & Black, N. (2007). Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale. Molecular Biology and Evolution, 24(6), 1407-1415. https://doi.org/10.1093/molbev/msm063

Intraspecific resource partitioning and social affiliations both have the potential to structure populations, though it is rarely possible to directly assess the impact of these mechanisms on genetic diversity and population divergence. Here, we addr... Read More about Evolution of population structure in a highly social top predator, the killer whale.

Ever since its invention, the polymerase chain reaction has been the method of choice for work with ancient DNA. In an application of modern genomic methods to material from the Pleistocene, a recent study has instead undertaken to clone and sequence... Read More about Ancient genomes.
