This analysis demonstrates genetic diversity in a critically endangered gorilla population, indicating non-invasive techniques may enhance conservation efforts.
This study demonstrates the utility of non-invasive faecal sampling and pooled sequencing for assessing genetic diversity in challenging field conditions, highlighting its potential for population-level genetic monitoring of non-human primates. Our findings provide valuable insights into the genetic makeup of this critically endangered population, contributing to future conservation efforts, and supporting the recovery of mountain gorillas.
