This project investigates the relationship between genetic diversity and fitness traits in the Antarctic fur seal. By utilizing advanced DNA sequencing techniques, it aims to identify specific genes associated with traits like longevity and reproductive success, enhancing our understanding of how genetic variation infl…
Many important fitness traits including longevity, reproductive success, parasite resistance, territory-holding ability, song complexity and even attractiveness often correlate with heterozygosity in natural populations.
Where documented, such heterozygosity-fitness correlations (HFCs) have the clear potential to influence interactions between pathogens and their hosts and the evolution of mate choice.
However, because most studies use only around ten neutral microsatellite markers, the proxim…
