The muskox lost a substantial part of its genetic diversity on its long road to Greenland

Hansen et al. analyze genetic variation in the muskox, the largest herbivore in the Arctic. The muskox has experienced drastic declines in population size, leading to lower genetic diversity levels than most herbivores. The low genetic diversity and strong genetic structure holds implications for th...
