Abstract: The genetic characteristics of introduced populations have a relevant impact on their ability to establish and spread. The American mink (Neovison vison), native to North America, is an important invasive species in the Iberian Peninsula.… read more here.

Towards a taxonomy of stereotypic behaviours in the American mink (Neovison vison), a model Carnivore: Homogeneous or heterogeneous?

DOI: 10.1016/j.applanim.2017.05.007
Abstract: Abstract Stereotypic behaviours (SBs) are sometimes assumed homogeneous, despite their diverse morphologies, as if sharing a common aetiology. However, if different SB forms are instead heterogeneous, they may have different causes, potentially impacting how best… read more here.

Functional genetic diversity of domestic and wild American mink (Neovison vison)

DOI: 10.1111/eva.13061
Abstract: The release of domestic organisms to the wild threatens biodiversity because the introduction of domestic genes through interbreeding can negatively impact wild conspecifics via outbreeding depression. In North America, farmed American mink (Neovison vison) frequently… read more here.
