The role of demographic history and selection in shaping genetic diversity of the Galápagos penguin (Spheniscus mendiculus).

Although many studies have documented the effects of demographic bottlenecks on the genetic diversity of natural populations, there is conflicting evidence of the roles that genetic drift and selection may play in driving changes in genetic variation at adaptive loci. We analyzed genetic variation a...
