Conservation Genetics of the Cheetah: Genetic History and Implications for Conservation [PDF]
Cheetahs: Biology and Conservation, 2018 From allozymes in 1983 to whole genomes in 2015, genetic studies of the cheetah have been extensive. In this chapter we provide an overview of the available literature. Overall, patterns of genetic variation provided evidence of low variability and suggest this loss occurred thousands of years ago.

Differentiation measures for conservation genetics. [PDF]
Evol Appl, 2018 AbstractWe compare the two main classes of measures of population structure in genetics: (i) fixation measures such as FST, GST, and θ and (ii) allelic differentiation measures such as Jost's D and entropy differentiation. These two groups of measures quantify complementary aspects of population structure, which have no necessary relationship with each

Plant Conservation Practitioners Can Benefit from Neutral Genetic Diversity
Diversity, 2021 Several papers deal with a conservation genetics gap in which plant conservation and restoration managers or practitioners do not soundly integrate population genetics information into conservation management. Authors concerned about this issue point out

Sovereign genes: wildlife conservation, genetic preservation, and Indigenous data sovereignty
Frontiers in Conservation Science, 2023 The application of conservation genetics to wildlife preservation efforts are ongoing and promising. These involve the mobilization of a toolkit that ranges from monitoring the genetic diversity of rare species to more ambitious experiments in ...
