Population genetics of Grey Wolf (Canis lupus) in Eurasia
Báčová, Alžběta ; Černá Bolfíková, Barbora (advisor) ; Pavel, Pavel (referee)
The grey wolf (Canis lupus) is the largest canine carnivore living on northern hemisphere of the Earth. Excessive persecution of Canis lupus at the turn of 19th and 20th century has caused nearly extermination of this animal species in the most parts of its natural habitat. Natural habitat got rapidly smaller at that time. At the end of 20th century number of individuals of Canis lupus has increased and the grey wolf has started to return to its natural habitat due to better legal protection. Its natural habitat is very fragmented especially in Western Europe. The origin of founders of wolf populations is estimated and the tracks of migrating individuals are followed, by monitoring the gene flow. In last fifteen years the grey wolf has started to return back to Czech countryside. Usage of microsatellites proved its presence in Beskyd Mountains, Czech and Slovakia republic. Comparing DNA samples of Canis lupus with those of Carpathian wolves showed the same origin of both groups within Europe. Detailed research points to deeper structure even within subpopulation.
