Genetic diversity and evidence of recent demographic expansion in waterbird populations from the Brazilian Pantanal Diversidade genética e evidências de expansão demográfica recente nas populações de aves aquáticas do Pantanal brasileiro

The present study determined nuclear and mitochondrial (mtDNA) levels of genetic variability and phylogeographic patterns in breeding populations of Roseate Spoonbill (N = 57), Wood Stork (N = 89), and Jabiru Stork (N = 30), sampled in the Brazilian Pantanal.
