Abstract The invasive white‐footed ant Technomyrmex difficilis has emerged as a rising pest in several regions, yet its invasion dynamics remain underexplored. This species outcompetes native ants and causes agricultural losses by tending pest insects, including aphids and mealybugs.

ABSTRACT Species with extremely small population sizes are critically endangered because of reduced genetic diversity, increased inbreeding and hybridisation threats. Genomic tools significantly advance conservation by revealing genetic insights into endangered species, notably in monitoring frameworks.

Change in genetic size of small-closed populations: lessons from a domestic mammal population
The aim of this study was to monitor changes in genetic size of a small-closed population of Iranian Zandi sheep, by using pedigree information from animals born between 1991 and 2005.

Inbreeding and coancestry trends in Nordic Holstein
Increased rates of inbreeding have been observed in several Holstein populations across the world since genomic selection (GS) was implemented into the breeding programs. The objective of this study was to test whether this is also the case in the Nordic Holstein population using pedigree data.

ABSTRACT The Iberian lynx was at the brink of extinction by the year 2000 but has since then, and thanks to intensive conservation measures, gone through a remarkable recovery, providing a much‐welcomed and encouraging conservation success story.

Genetic information from progeny trials: a comparison between progenies generated by open pollination and by controlled crosses [PDF]
When conifer progenies generated by open pollination are assessed in field tests, it is usually assumed that all progenies of the same mother are true half-sibs.

ABSTRACT In a world where habitats are degrading and the climate is warming and becoming unpredictable, biodiversity conservation efforts and funding remain grossly inadequate. As part of a multifaceted approach to halting extinctions, shifting from preserving small, remnant populations to a practice of genetically connecting populations that recreate ...
