A mechanism that maintains alternative life histories in a loggerhead sea turtle population
H Hatase, K Omuta, K Tsukamoto - Ecology, 2013 - Wiley Online Library

Conservation implications of complex population structure: lessons from the loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta)
Complex population structure can result from either sex‐biased gene flow or population
overlap during migrations. Loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) have both traits, providing an …
