Population admixture and high larval viability among urban toads

Ecology and Evolution, 2013
AbstractIn terms of evolutionary biology, a population admixture of more than two distinct lineages may lead to strengthened genetic variation through hybridization. However, a population admixture arising from artificial secondary contact poses significant problems in conservation biology.

ddRAD sequencing of the endangered species Primula palinuri Petagna reveals high levels of inter-population diversity

Scientific Reports
Population genetics studies provide information regarding genetic diversity and genetic structure of populations. This information can in turn be used to inform conservation strategies.

Health effects of human population isolation and admixture.

Croatian medical journal, 2006
The actions and choices made by individual human beings in space and time may lead to their temporary or permanent isolation from the other living individuals. Some of the examples could be either working at a lighthouse, or time spent in prison, or voluntary withdrawal to investigate less populated areas.
