High variance in reproductive success generates a false signature of a genetic bottleneck in populations of constant size: a simulation study

BACKGROUND: Demographic bottlenecks can severely reduce the genetic variation of a population or a species. Establishing whether low genetic variation is caused by a bottleneck or a constantly low effective number of individuals is important to understand a species’ ecology and evolution, and it has...
