Differential population trends align with migratory connectivity in an endangered shorebird
Conservation Science and Practice, 2022 Migratory connectivity describes the extent to which migratory species' populations are connected throughout the annual cycle. While recognized as critical for understanding the population dynamics of migratory species and conserving them, empirical ...

A conservation genomics workflow to guide practical management actions
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021 Owing to decreasing costs and increased efficiency, it is now conceivable that conservation genomic information can be used to improve the effectiveness of recovery programs for many, if not most, threatened plants. We suggest that a simple genomic study

Blood concentrations of lactate, glucose and corticosterone in dispersing hatchling sea turtles
Biology Open, 2012 Summary Natal dispersal of sea turtles is an energetically demanding activity that is fuelled primarily by aerobic metabolism. However, during intense exercise reptiles can use anaerobic metabolism to supplement their energy requirements.

Collating biodiversity occurrence data for conservation
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Plant and animal checklists, with conservation status information, are fundamental for conservation management. Historical field data, more recent data of digital origin and data-sharing platforms provide useful sources for collating species locality ...

Distribution and conservation of threatened gymnosperms in China
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021 China is one of the diversity centers of gymnosperms. Nearly one-fifth (195 species) of gymnosperms are located in China, but 69 species are threatened. To date, the conservation status of gymnosperms, especially threatened gymnosperms in China, remains ...

Invasive pathogens threaten species recovery programs [PDF]
Current Biology, 2008 SummaryCaptive breeding and re-introduction is integral to the recovery of many threatened species [1], but such practices carry an associated risk of introducing exotic and potentially unknown pathogens into naïve settings. Amphibians are facing a mass extinction crisis and an emerging pathogen, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, described only in 1998 ...

Terrestrial mammal fauna and threatened species in France
Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 1996 <strong>Abstract</strong> With the passing of time, the terrestrial mammal fauna changed considerably in France: definitive extinctions, temporary disappearances, natural reapparitions, introductions and reintroductions.
