Conservation genetics

2017
The chapter looks into conservation genetics as a method used to mitigate extinction. It explains how molecular genetics is used in conservation biology. Molecular systemics are great assets in wildlife forensic investigations. PCR technology enables genetic studies to be conducted on rare species.

Conservation Genetics: Techniques and Fundamentals

Ecological Applications, 1992
Conservation genetics utilizes the tools and concepts of genetics and applies them to problems in conservation biology. For example, molecular genetic techniques, such as protein electrophoresis, and analysis of mitochondrial DNA and highly variable nuclear genes (including DNA fingerprinting), have been important in documenting the extent and pattern ...

Population Genetics for Animal Conservation

2001
It is widely accepted among conservation biologists that genetics is, more than ever, an essential and efficient tool for wild and captive population management and reserve design. However, a true synergy between population genetics and conservation biology is lacking.

Genetics and Demography in Biological Conservation

Science, 1988
Predicting the extinction of single populations or species requires ecological and evolutionary information. Primary demographic factors affecting population dynamics include social structure, life history variation caused by environmental fluctuation, dispersal in spatially heterogeneous environments, and local extinction and colonization.

Animal breeding and conservation genetics

1994
Conservation genetics in an animal breeding context relates both to questions of preservation of rare and endangered breeds or populations, and to utilization with planned genetic change to improve viability, productivity, and efficiency of production. In the developed world, preservation is the primary issue, and various organizations exist which are ...
