Genetic structure in Orkney island mice: isolation promotes morphological diversification
Following human occupation, the house mouse has colonised numerous islands, exposing the species to a wide variety of environments. Such a colonisation process, involving successive founder events and bottlenecks, may either promote random evolution or facilitate adaptation, making the relative importance of adaptive and stochastic processes in insular evolution difficult...Chevret, Pascale ; Hautier, Lionel ; Ganem, Guila ; Herman, Jeremy S ; Agret, Sylvie …
