Where's the Conservation in Conservation Genetics?

Conservation Biology, 2008
The molecular techniques for producing the type and quantity of data required for conservation studies are now available, and the number of statistical methods applicable to such genetic data is constantly growing. We propose two clear objectives critical to ensconcing conservation genetics as a mature and indispensable discipline: the regular and ...

Conservation genetics in transition to conservation genomics [PDF]

open access: possibleTrends in Genetics, 2010
Over the past twenty years conservation genetics has progressed from being mainly a theory-based field of population biology to a full-grown empirical discipline. Technological developments in molecular genetics have led to extensive use of neutral molecular markers such as microsatellites in conservation biology.

Conservation in the Anthropocene

Conservation Biology, 2011
IT HAS BECOME COMMONPLACE to remark that humans are now the dominant environmental force on the Earth. The indications are strong and diverse. They range from paleontologists reaching a consensus that humans contributed to megafaunal extinctions on at least two continents, North America and Australia;1 recognition that formerly intact marine ecosystems

Conservation Genetics

Annual Review of Genetics, 1995
Inbreeding depression, accumulation and loss of deleterious mutations, loss of genetic variation in small populations, genetic adaptation to captivity and its effect on reintroduction success, and outbreeding depression are reviewed. The impact of genetic factors in endangerment and extinction has been underestimated in some recent publications ...

From Conservation Genetics to Conservation Genomics

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009
Although the application of population and evolutionary genetic theory and methods to address issues of conservation relevance has a long history, the formalization of conservation genetics as a research field is still relatively recent. One of the periodic catalysts for increased research effort in the field has been advances in molecular technologies,

Conservation Genomics

2009
Conservation of Populus genetic resources can be defined at three levels: conservation of all Populus species, conservation of the variation present within species, and the conservation of the key evolutionary processes that will enhance further evolution of Populus species.
