Endogamia em um rebanho da raça Guzerá Inbreeding in a Guzera breed herd

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 1999
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito da endogamia sobre os pesos ao nascimento (PN) e os pesos aos 8 (P8), 12 (P12), 18 (P18) e 24 (P24) meses de idade de um rebanho da raça Guzerá.

El coeficiente de endogamia de una población finita autoesteril

Revista Chapingo Serie Horticultura, 2006
El coeficiente de endogamia tiene importancia en el mejoramiento genético de los cultivos agrícolas ya que se relaciona con el número efectivo de una población (tamaño de la población ideal cuya tasa de endogamia es igual a la de la población bajo ...

Hypopigmentation in mantled howler monkeys Alouatta palliata (gray 1849): First documented cases of whole-body leucism in South America. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2022
Hypopigmentation in vertebrates is the result of genetic impoverishment and it is associated with isolated populations and environmental stressors. In mantled howler monkeys Alouatta palliata (Gray 1849) there are records of hypopigmentation in Mexico and Costa Rica but this is the first documented record of whole‐body leucism in South America in a ...

Genomic erosion in a demographically recovered bird species during conservation rescue. [PDF]

Conserv Biol, 2022
Abstract The pink pigeon (Nesoenas mayeri) is an endemic species of Mauritius that has made a remarkable recovery after a severe population bottleneck in the 1970s to early 1990s. Prior to this bottleneck, an ex situ population was established from which captive‐bred individuals were released into free‐living subpopulations to increase population size ...

A Dominant Founder Lineage Has Possible Fitness Costs for the Endangered Mexican Grey Wolf. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT The Mexican grey wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) is an endangered and genetically distinct subspecies of grey wolf adapted to the warm climates of the southwestern United States and Mexico. Following centuries of eradication efforts, Mexican grey wolves were protected under the Endangered Species Act in 1976, prompting an international ex situ ...

Fitness consequences and ancestry loss in the Apennine brown bear after a simulated genetic rescue intervention

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Reduction in population size, with its predicted effects on population fitness, is the most alarming anthropogenic impact on endangered species. By introducing compatible individuals, genetic rescue (GR) is a promising but debated approach for reducing the genetic load unmasked by inbreeding and for restoring the fitness of declining ...

Genetic diversity and IUCN Red List status

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List is an important and widely used tool for conservation assessment. The IUCN uses information about a species’ range, population size, habitat quality and fragmentation levels, and trends in abundance to assess extinction risk.

Modeling genetic benefits and financial costs of integrating biobanking into the conservation breeding of managed marsupials

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Managed breeding programs are an important tool in marsupial conservation efforts but may be costly and have adverse genetic effects in unavoidably small captive colonies. Biobanking and assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) could help overcome these challenges, but further demonstration of their potential is required to improve uptake. We

Experimental admixture among geographically disjunct populations of an invasive plant yields a global mosaic of reproductive incompatibility and heterosis

Journal of Ecology, Volume 109, Issue 5, Page 2152-2162, May 2021., 2021
Biogeographic patterns of variation in reproductive success in an invasive weed with allopatric distribution. Abstract Invasive species have the ability to rapidly adapt in the new regions where they are introduced. Classic evolutionary theory predicts that the accumulation of genetic differences over time in allopatric isolation may lead to ...
