the genetic impact of demographic decline and reintroduction in the wild boar (sus scrofa): a microsatellite analysis. | the reintroduction of wild boar from central europe after world war ii has contributed substantially to the range expansion of this species in italy, where indiscriminate hunting in earlier times resulted in extreme demographic reduction. however, the genetic impact of such processes is not well-understood. in this study, 105 individuals from italian and hungarian wild boar populations were characterized for nine autosomal microsatellite loci. the hungarian samples, and two central italian sampl ... | 2003 | 12675815 |
