Genetic effects of persistent population bottlenecks on long-lived organisms with overlapping generations
… while the other is relatively undisturbed. The heterozygosity excess test detected the genetic signature of a recent bottleneck in the small population, but the bottleneck had little effect on the level of genetic diversity in this case. Based on life history attributes of this species and …

Did bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) from the Bering-Chukchi-Beaufort Seas undergo a genetic bottleneck? A test using nuclear microsatellite loci
… Wilcoxon test is significant for a heterozygote excess (p = 0.042) suggesting that a genetic bottleneck has occurred. This is not substantiated by the exact tests of each locus or the table-wide sign test. There is a possibility that a bottleneck has occurred, but due to the small sample size …
