Evolutionary Conservation Genetics
2006Abstract The biodiversity of the planet is being rapidly depleted as a direct and indirect consequence of human actions (referred to as the “sixth extinction”; Leakey & Lewin 1995). An unknown but large number of species are already extinct, while many others have reduced population sizes that put them at risk.

Butterfly Conservation Genetics
2015Conservation programs are challenged with preventing biodiversity loss; losses that have typically been managed as preservation of individual species and groups. An increasing focus on different levels of biodiversity has promoted methods evaluating the genetic diversity in these species as a tool in preventing species loss.

In this study, I describe genetic structure and degree of genetic divergence among Komodo dragon populations. Genetic analyses were carried out using blood and tissue samples collected from individuals on all of the islands that have dragons. Komodo dragons inhabit five islands, surrounded by relatively shallow waters (see Chapter 3), which were ...
