Genetic diversity and population genetic structure of red deer (Cervus elaphus) in the Scottish mainland, inferred by microsatellite markers and mitochondrial DNA control region sequences

Despite the relatively small scale of the study area and the high dispersal capabilities of red deer, red deer on the Scottish mainland presented high levels of genetic diversity and significant population structure for both genetic markers, microsatellites (F<sub>ST</sub>= 0.019; G<s...
