The dogs of Chernobyl: Demographic insights into populations inhabiting the nuclear exclusion zone
The 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster initiated a series of catastrophic events resulting in long-term and widespread environmental contamination. We characterize the genetic structure of 302 dogs representing three free-roaming dog populations living ...
