Red Deer Genetic Diversity & Hybridization | Wildlife Online
WEBIn other words, they can hybridize to produce offspring that are genetically part Sika, part Red deer. In his 1897 British Deer and their Horns, John Guille Millais presented a drawing of a skull suggested to be a Red-Sika hybrid from County Wicklow in Ireland dated 1894, although it's unclear whether this was actually a hybrid.
Deciphering Anthropogenic Effects on the Genetic Background of the Red ...
WEBThis study is focused on the Iberian Peninsula and aims to: (i) assess the extent of anthropogenic hybridization/introgression of introduced red deer into the native Iberian populations; (ii) evaluate the impact of red deer management regimes on the observed hybridization/introgression patterns; and (iii) assess how hybridization/introgression i...
Human-driven genetic differentiation in a managed red deer …
WEBMar 18, 2021 · The results show a clear genetic differentiation between most of the AMUs. Fourteen AMUs may be combined into four regions with a considerable internal genetic exchange. Five areas were largely isolated or showed only a limited gene flow with neighbouring areas. Ten of the 19 AMUs had an effective population size below 100.
Red Deer in Scotland Have Genetically Evolved in Response to …
WEBNov 7, 2019 · Red deer populations in the Scottish Highlands have genetically evolved over the last four decades to give birth earlier in the year in response to climate change and increasing temperatures, according to new research published in the journal PLOS Biology.
Development of Diagnostic SNP Markers To Monitor Hybridization …
WEBMay 22, 2018 · Very recently, the high-density genetic map of red deer ( Johnston et al. 2017) (based on 38,000 SNPs) and draft genome of red deer ( Bana et al. 2018) and reindeer ( R. tarandus) ( Li et al. 2017) have also been published.
Introgression through rare hybridization: A genetic study of a hybrid …

Phenotypic correlates of hybridisation between red and sika deer …
WEBFeb 5, 2010 · Summary. 1. Hybridisation with an invasive species has the potential to alter the phenotype and hence the ecology of a native counterpart. 2. Here data from populations of native red deer Cervus elaphus and invasive sika deer Cervus nippon in Scotland is used to assess the extent to which hybridisation between them is causing phenotypic …
High-Density Linkage Map Reveals Sexual Dimorphism in …
WEBAug 1, 2017 · The red deer is a large deer species that is widely distributed across the northern hemisphere, and is a model system for sexual selection and behavior (Clutton-Brock et al. 1982; Kruuk et al. 2002), hybridization (Senn and Pemberton 2009), inbreeding (Huisman et al. 2016), and population management (Frantz et al. 2006).
Human-driven genetic differentiation in a managed red deer …
WEBIntroduction. Red deer (Cervus elaphus) populations in continuous land- scapes are in active genetic exchange with each other as long as the younger stags are able to migrate. In Germany, the law is indirectly limiting migration (German hunting law as amended in the year 2015 and the Hessian hunting law as amended in 2016).
Mitochondrial DNA phylogeography of red deer (Cervus elaphus)
WEBJun 1, 2004 · The mitochondrial protein-coding gene for cytochrome b has been proven to be useful for resolving phylogenetic patterns among various artiodactyls within evolutionary time frames shorter than 25 million years ( Stanley et al., 1994; Tanaka et al., 1996 ).
