cord-265357-3f0xph0y	Halczok, Tanja K.	Evidence for genetic variation in Natterer’s bats (Myotis nattereri) across three regions in Germany but no evidence for co-variation with their associated astroviruses	2017-01-05		.txt	text/plain	6530	322	47	RESULTS: We used 19 nuclear and one mitochondrial microsatellite loci to analyze the genetic population structure of the Natterer's bat (Myotis nattereri) within and among populations at different geographical scales in Germany. CONCLUSIONS: The genetic population structure of the bat host suggests that mating sites where several local breeding colonies meet act as stepping-stones for gene flow. We studied patterns of population genetic structure and dispersal of Myotis nattereri within and among three geographic regions of Germany using both nuclear and mitochondrial microsatellite markers. We hypothesized that if virus transmission between host populations were associated with events linked to gene flow in the bats, e.g. mating [28] , genetic co-variation should be detectable between host populations and astroviruses on a larger scale (e.g. between geographic regions), even though not necessarily within a certain region. Using the 19 autosomal microsatellite loci, Structure inferred the presence of three distinct genetic clusters ( Fig. 2 ; Additional file 1: Figure S1 ), splitting our data set into the three sampled regions NRW, MV and BY.	./cache/cord-265357-3f0xph0y.txt	./txt/cord-265357-3f0xph0y.txt
