Genetic Diversity Trends – Cape Mountain Zebra
This study aims to determine the impact of management on genetic diversity in three key populations of the Cape mountain zebra. Our results show a substantial loss of heterozygosity across the Cape mountain zebra populations studied. Authors: Kotzé A, Smith RM, Moodley Y, Birss C, Grobler JP, Dalton DL. 2019.
