Ecological genomics and adaptation of rosewoods Dalbergia cochinchinensis and D. oliveri for conservation and restoration [PDF]
Global biodiversity, in particular tropical forests, is decreasing under both environmental change and anthropogenic disturbance. Environmental change alters species’ adaptability to their current habitat, leading to loss of fitness and range shift ...

Local adaptations to the environment are an important aspect of the diversity of a species and their discovery, description and quantification has important implications for the fields of taxonomy, evolutionary and conservation biology. In this study, we

Environmental management of the buffer zones of conservation units in urban area
This article examines, from a legal standpoint, the importance of the definition, diagnosis and establishment of criteria for the use, occupation and monitoring of buffer zones for conservation units of integral protection. The management of conservation

Delimitation of evolutionary units in Cuvier’s dwarf caiman, Paleosuchus palpebrosus (Cuvier, 1807): insights from conservation of a broadly distributed species [PDF]
An important goal of evolutionary and conservation biology is the identification of units below the species level, such as Evolutionarily Significant Units (ESUs), providing objectively delimited units for species conservation and management.

Translating conservation genetics into management: Pan-European minimum requirements for dynamic conservation units of forest tree genetic diversity [PDF]
This paper provides a review of theoretical and practical aspects related to genetic management of forest trees. The implementation of international commitments on forest genetic diversity has been slow and partly neglected.

Current approaches to biodiversity conservation are largely based on geographic areas, ecosystems, ecological communities, and species, with less attention on genetic diversity and the evolutionary continuum from populations to species.

Extreme neutral genetic and morphological divergence supports classification of Adriatic three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) populations as distinct conservation units [PDF]
The fact that the intraspecific genetic differentiation in neutral genetic markers and genes coding for adaptive traits are not typically correlated has caused a great deal of conceptual and practical trouble in delimitation of conservation units ...

THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF VISITS TO PROTECTED AREAS TO SCHOOL EDUCATION [PDF]
Studies show the importance of school visits in protected areas and some of their weaknesses. However, there is a need to better understand the educational role of these moments.
