Species Show Low Genetic Diversity, High Endogamy
A six-year study conducted by the French Society for the Study and Protection of Mammals and the Cronon Environment laboratory in Besançon found that lynx in France have low genetic diversity. Researchers noted that there is still an active gene flow within the study area, suggesting ongoing exchanges between individuals. The study compared the situation to the more critical genetic state of Pyrenean bears. A discussion highlighted species exhibiting low levels of genetic diversity and high levels of endogamy, particularly in relation to environmental adaptation. This observation is presented as a key aspect to consider regarding species in various times.

“une étude qui a duré six ans et résultat, sans surprise, en France aussi, les lynx ont une faible diversité génétique.”

“podemos ver especies en los tiempos que tienen por ejemplo, bajo nivel de diversidad genética y que preseltan alto nivel por ejemplo de el dogami.”
