From Conservation Genetics to Conservation Genomics
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2009Although the application of population and evolutionary genetic theory and methods to address issues of conservation relevance has a long history, the formalization of conservation genetics as a research field is still relatively recent. One of the periodic catalysts for increased research effort in the field has been advances in molecular technologies,

Conservation Biology, 2020
Reviews that summarize the genetic diversity of plant species in relation to their life history and ecological traits show that forest trees have more genetic diversity at population and species levels than annuals or herbaceous perennials.

Global Change Biology, 2020
Impacts of climate change are apparent in natural systems around the world. Many species are and will continue to struggle to persist in their current location as their preferred environment changes.

Conservation Biology, 2020
Ex situ conservation is widely used to protect wild plant species from extinction. However, it remains unclear how genetic variation of ex situ plant collections reflects diversity of wild source populations.

Genomics and conservation genetics
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2006In large part, the relevance of genetics to conservation rests on the premise that neutral marker variation in populations reflects levels of detrimental and adaptive genetic variation. Despite its prominence, this tenet has been difficult to evaluate, until now.

Conservation genetics in transition to conservation genomics
Trends in Genetics, 2010Over the past twenty years conservation genetics has progressed from being mainly a theory-based field of population biology to a full-grown empirical discipline. Technological developments in molecular genetics have led to extensive use of neutral molecular markers such as microsatellites in conservation biology.

Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1992
Abstract The basic sciences of genetics and ecology have long played a vital role in agriculture. New technologies spawning a gene revolution promise to revolutionize agricultural genetics. The opportunities to utilize these new techniques, along with standard methods of animal and plant breeding, are great for agriculture, conservation biology, and ...

Global meta-analysis shows action is needed to halt genetic diversity loss
NatureMitigating loss of genetic diversity is a major global biodiversity challenge1, 2, 3–4. To meet recent international commitments to maintain genetic diversity within species5,6, we need to understand relationships between threats, conservation management
