Fine-scale genetic structure analyses suggest further male than female dispersal in mountain gorillas
BACKGROUND: Molecular studies in social mammals rarely compare the inferences gained from genetic analyses with field information, especially in the context of dispersal. In this study, we used genetic data to elucidate sex-specific dispersal dynamics in the Virunga Massif mountain gorilla populatio...
