Advancing Genetic Methods in the Study of Parrot Biology and Conservation
Diversity, 2021 Parrots (Psittaciformes) are a well-studied, diverse group of birds distributed mainly in tropical and subtropical regions. Today, one-third of their species face extinction, mainly due to anthropogenic threats. Emerging tools in genetics have made major

Towards a Genetic Linkage Map of the California Condor, an Endangered New World Vulture Species
Animals, 2022 The development of a linkage map is an important component for promoting genetic and genomic studies in California condors, an endangered New World vulture species. Using a set of designed anonymous microsatellite markers, we genotyped a reference condor

Pattern of population structuring between Belgian and Estonian bumblebees [PDF]
, 2019 Several population genetic studies investigated the extent of gene flow and population connectivity in bumblebees. In general, no restriction in gene flow is considered for mainland populations of common bumblebee species.

KEYNOTE ADDRESS: CONSERVATION GENETICS OF FRESHWATER ORGANISMS
Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005 This manuscript serves as a summary of both the importance of genetics in conservation, and the range of methodological approaches available. Two somewhat distinct realms of conservation genetics are outlined. The first theoretically rests upon the field
