Range-wide whole-genome resequencing of the brown bear reveals drivers of intraspecies divergence

The brown bear is a textbook example species of the effect of Quaternary glaciation cycles on the present-day geographical distribution of mtDNA haplotypes. We compiled and analysed a range-wide whole-genome dataset of 128 brown bear individuals in order to re-evaluate brown bear population structure and genetic diversity using nuclear markers from autosomes and sex chromosomes. The file 'PLOTCOMMANDS.txt' contains detailed instructions on how to recreate the figures presented within the paper.
