Waste not, want not: Microsatellites remain an economical and informative technology for conservation genetics. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2021
Comparisons of microsatellites and single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have found that SNPs outperform microsatellites in population genetic analyses, questioning the continued utility of microsatellites in population and landscape genetics.

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.

Bridging the conservation genetics gap by identifying barriers to implementation for conservation practitioners

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2017
Despite its recognised importance for species’ persistence, integrating genetics into conservation management has proved problematic, creating a “conservation genetics gap”, which could widen with the advent of advanced genomic techniques.

Conservation Genetics

Annual Review of Genetics, 2019
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 ...
