Spatial Genetic Structure under Limited Dispersal: Theory, Methods and Consequences of Isolation-by-Distance

abstract: Isolation-by-distance is a specific type of spatial genetic structure that arises when parent-offspring dispersal is limited. Many natural populations exhibit localized dispersal, and as a result, individuals that are geographically near each other will tend to have greater genetic similar...
