      Ancient DNA provides a powerful means to investigate the timing, rate and extent of population declines caused by extrinsic factors, such as past climate change and human activities. One species probably affected by both ...
    • Contrasting genomic consequences of anthropogenic reintroduction and natural recolonization in high-arctic wild reindeer 

      Burnett, Hamish Andrew; Bieker, Vanessa Carina; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Peeters, Bart; Rosvold, Jørgen; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Dalén, Love; Loe, Leif Egil; Jensen, Henrik; Hansen, Brage Bremset; Martin, Michael David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Anthropogenic reintroduction can supplement natural recolonization in reestablishing a species' distribution and abundance. However, both reintroductions and recolonizations can give rise to founder effects that reduce ...

    • Evolution, ecology and conservation - revisiting three decades of Arctic fox population genetic research 

      Norén, Karin; Dalén, Love; Flagstad, Øystein; Berteaux, Dominique; Wallén, Johan; Angerbjörn, Anders (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Three decades have passed since the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) was first put into a population genetic perspective. With the aim of addressing how microevolution operates on different biological levels, we here review ...
    • Restoration of transborder connectivity for Fennoscandian brown bears (Ursus arctos) 

      Kopatz, Alexander; Kleven, Oddmund; Kojola, Ilpo; Aspi, Jouni; Norman, Anita J.; Spong, Göran; Gyllenstrand, Niclas; Dalén, Love; Fløystad, Ida; Hagen, Snorre; Kindberg, Jonas; Flagstad, Øystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Knowledge about the connectivity among natural populations is essential to identify management units for effective conservation actions. Conservation-minded management has led to the recovery of large carnivore populations ...
