Population genomics of the Anthropocene: urbanization is negatively associated with genome‐wide variation in white‐footed mouse populations

Urbanization results in pervasive habitat fragmentation and reduces standing genetic variation through bottlenecks and drift. Loss of genomewide variation may ultimately reduce the evolutionary potential of animal populations experiencing rapidly changing conditions. In this study, we examined genom...
