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

Conservation genetics of relict tropical species of Magnolia (section Macrophylla)
Special conservation efforts should be made for relict species, as they usually have small population sizes and restricted distributions, placing them in critical extinction risk.

Quercus Conservation Genetics and Genomics: Past, Present, and Future
Quercus species (oaks) have been an integral part of the landscape in the northern hemisphere for millions of years. Their ability to adapt and spread across different environments and their contributions to many ecosystem services is well documented ...

Challenges with Conservation Genetics and Genomics in Neotropical Forest
Several accounts of the exceptional richness of neotropical forests were recognized by European peoples of the “New World”. For this reason, the colonization process in these regions were extractive.

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.

Lack of variation at phosphoglucose isomerase (pgi) in bumblebees: implications for conservation genetics studies. [PDF]
Assessing genetic variation underlying ecologically important traits is increasingly of interest and importance in population and conservation genetics. For some groups generally useful markers exist for examining the relative role of selection and drift

Museum specimens: An overlooked and valuable material for conservation genetics
Museum specimens include genetic information from when they were collected. This historical information, which is very difficult to ascertain from samples collected currently, could be a valuable material for use in conservation genetics.
