Evolutionary and Conservation Genetics [PDF]
Genetic variation, evolution, and conservation are three strictly interconnected words, but none of them exist without the others, unless wanting to waive a complete and operational sense [...]

Conservation Genetics and Genomics. [PDF]
For more than thirty years, methods and theories from evolutionary biology, phylogenetics, population genetics and molecular biology have been used by conservation biologists to better understand threats to endangered species due to anthropogenic changes

Differentiation measures for conservation genetics. [PDF]
We 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.

Deleterious Variation in Natural Populations and Implications for Conservation Genetics. [PDF]
Deleterious mutations decrease reproductive fitness and are ubiquitous in genomes. Given that many organisms face ongoing threats of extinction, there is interest in elucidating the impact of deleterious variation on extinction risk and optimizing ...

Conservation genetics as a management tool: The five best-supported paradigms to assist the management of threatened species. [PDF]
About 50 y ago, Crow and Kimura [An Introduction to Population Genetics Theory (1970)] and Ohta and Kimura [Genet. Res. 22, 201–204 (1973)] laid the foundations of conservation genetics by predicting the relationship between population size and genetic ...
