BackgroundThe high levels of variation characterising the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecule are due ultimately to its high average mutation rate; moreover, mtDNA variation is deeply structured in different populations and ethnic groups.There is growing interest in selecting a reduced number of mtDNA single nucleotide polymorphisms (mtSNPs) that ac
Habitat area requirements of forest songbirds vary greatly among species, but the causes of this variation are not well understood.Large area requirements could result from advantages for certain species when settling their territories near those of a Half conspecifics.This phenomenon would result in spatial aggregations much larger than single ter
