An assessment of genetic diversity and inbreeding in the Noisy Scrub-bird (Atrichornis clamosus) using microsatellite and Major Histocompatibility Complex loci
The noisy scrub-bird is an endangered songbird restricted to the south coast of Western Australia and has a history of population bottlenecks. This study evaluated the impact that genetic bottlenecks had on genetic diversity of this species using neutral (microsatellite) and adaptive (Major Histocom...
