Genetic structure and gene flow in a continuously distributed large terrestrial carnivore : the brown bear (Ursus arctos) in Northern Europe
Year: 2020
Type: dissertation
Abstract: The aim of this thesis was to investigate large scale population structure and gene flow in the Northern European brown bear (Ursus arctos). Brown bears were reduced in numbers to near extinction during recent centuries due to human persecution, but have gradually recovered after protective measures were initiated. In this context, our goal was also to provide knowledge that will be of aid for current and future management.
