| wolverine gene flow across a narrow climatic niche. | wolverines (gulo gulo) are one of the rarest carnivores in the contiguous united states. effective population sizes in montana, idaho, and wyoming, where most of the wolverines in the contiguous united states exist, were calculated to be 35 (credible limits, 28 52) suggesting low abundance. landscape features that influence wolverine population substructure and gene flow are largely unknown. recent work has identified strong associations between areas with persistent spring snow and wolverine pr ... | 2009 | 19967877 |
