Demographic history and genomic consequences of 10,000 generations of isolation in a wild mammal. ...
Increased human activities caused the isolation of populations in many species-often associated with genetic depletion and negative fitness effects. The effects of isolation are predicted by theory, but long-term data from natural populations are scarce. We show, with full genome sequences, that com...

Increased human activities caused the isolation of populations in many species-often associated with genetic depletion and negative fitness effects.
