Direct gradient analyses in spatial genetics provide unique opportunities to describe the
inherent complexity of genetic variation in wildlife species and are the object of many …

Individual differences in contact rate can arise from host, group and landscape
heterogeneity and can result in different patterns of spatial spread for diseases in wildlife …

Lyme borreliosis is rapidly emerging in Canada, and climate change is likely a key driver of
the northern spread of the disease in North America. We used field and modeling …
