Causes and consequences of genetic diversity in pinnipeds
The rise of empirical population genetics and more recently the genomic revolution have given us the tools to explore completely new questions in ecology and evolution. Based on only a single temporal sample of individuals, genetics now allows us to glimpse into the demographic history of a species …
