Genetic network analysis uncovers spatial variation in diversity and connectivity of a species presenting a continuous distribution

The paper develops a framework combining genetic network analysis and population genetics to assess connectivity and diversity in woodland caribou with continuous distributions, revealing isolation by distance and genetic erosion at range boundaries.

Major diversification of caribou shaped by glacial cycles before the Last Glacial Maximum

This study shows that caribou diversification and introgression occurred before the Last Glacial Maximum, with major splits around 110 kya and large effective population sizes.
