| high gene flow in the american badger overrides habitat preferences and limits broadscale genetic structure. | habitat associations are a function of habitat preferences and dispersal capabilities, both of which can influence how species responded to quaternary climatic changes and contemporary habitat heterogeneity. predicting resultant genetic structure is not always straightforward, especially in species where high dispersal potential and habitat preferences yield opposing predictions. the american badger has high dispersal capabilities that predict widespread panmixia, but avoids closed-canopy forest ... | 2016 | 27862522 |
