Analysis of population structure and genetic diversity in low-variance Saimaa ringed seals using low-coverage whole-genome sequence data

Summary: This protocol demonstrates how a fragmented reference genome and low-coverage sequencing data can be efficiently utilized for population genetic analyses of a species with highly reduced genetic diversity. Focusing on endangered Saimaa ringed seals, we detail the steps for data preparation...
