Management effectiveness of Nature Conservation Units in southern Brazil

Neotropical Biology and Conservation, 2023
The implementation of protected areas, in particular, nature Conservation Units (CUs), is a conservation strategy recognised worldwide. However, these territories require efficient management to achieve their conservation goals.

Genomics‐informed delineation of conservation units in a desert amphibian

Molecular Ecology, 2022
Delineating conservation units (CUs, e.g., evolutionarily significant units, ESUs, and management units, MUs) is critical to the recovery of declining species because CUs inform both listing status and management actions.

Re‐evaluating Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) conservation units in Canada using genomic data

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Conservation units (CUs) are important tools for supporting the implementation of standardized management practices for exploited species. Following the adoption of the Wild Salmon Policy in Canada, CUs were defined for Pacific salmon based on ...

Genomic insights into the genotype–environment mismatch and conservation units of a Qinghai–Tibet Plateau endemic cypress under climate change

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Habitat loss induced by climate warming is a major threat to biodiversity, particularly to threatened species. Understanding the genetic diversity and distributional responses to climate change of threatened species is critical to facilitate their ...

Conservation Units as a protection tool for social wasps in Minas Gerais state, Brazil

, 2021
Conservation Units are an important tool for the Brazilian biota protection. However, various taxa, including the social wasps, are undersampled or are unknown in these areas. Therefore, our study aimed to assess the social wasp richness and distribution
