Boom-bust population dynamics drive rapid genetic change Open
Increasing environmental threats and more extreme environmental perturbations place species at risk of population declines, with associated loss of genetic diversity and evolutionary potential. While theory shows that rapid population decl…

Episodic population fragmentation and gene flow reveal a trade‐off between heterozygosity and allelic richness Open
In episodic environments like deserts, populations of some animal species exhibit irregular fluctuations such that populations are alternately large and connected or small and isolated. Such dynamics are typically driven by periodic resour…
