Positive correlation between genetic diversity and fitness in a large, well-connected metapopulation
BACKGROUND: Theory predicts that lower dispersal, and associated gene flow, leads to decreased genetic diversity in small isolated populations, which generates adverse consequences for fitness, and subsequently for demography. Here we report for the first time this effect in a well-connected natural...
