Genetic consequences of a demographic bottleneck in the Scandinavian arctic fox (2006, background): “Genetic variation is an important component for both short and long-term persistence of populations (England et al. 2003).”
Genetic Effects of a Persistent Bottleneck on a Natural Population of Ornate Box Turtles (Terrapene ornata) (2004, background): “ England et al. (2003) found that diffuse population bottlenecks over several generations have a lower impact on the number of alleles compared to short intense bottlenecks.”
Patterns of Genetic Diversity and Its Loss in Mammalian Populations (2005, background): “Demographic factors that may influence persistence of genetic diversity include population declines, bottlenecks, reduction of population range, and isolation from conspecifics (Gibbs 2001; Frankham et al. 2002; England et al. 2003).”
Founding events in species invasions: genetic variation, adaptive evolution, and the role of multiple introductions (2008, result): “Experimental and observational work has since supported these predictions (e.g. McCommas & Bryant 1990; Leberg 1992; England et al. 2003; Eldridge et al. 2004).”
Founder effect and bottleneck signatures in an introduced, insular population of elk (2010, background): “Rare alleles are most likely to be lost (Nei et al. 1975; Houlden et al. 1996; Luikart et al. 1998; England et al. 2003), which”
