Comparing Genetic and Field-Based Estimates of Population Connectivity in Marbled Salamanders, <i>Ambystoma opacum</i>

Comparing Genetic and Field-Based Estimates of Population Connectivity in Marbled Salamanders, <i>Ambystoma opacum</i>

Estimating connectivity is key for maintaining population viability for pond-breeding amphibians, especially in areas where habitat alterations occur. Here, we used genetic data (microsatellites) to estimate connectivity of marbled salamanders, <i>Ambystoma opacum</i>, among three focal...
