Thematic Layers of Genomic Susceptibility for Conservation Monitoring
ABSTRACT Population genomics has great potential to inform applied conservation management and associated policy. However, the bioinformatic analyses and interpretation of population genomic datasets can be daunting and difficult to convey to nonspecialists, including on‐the‐ground conservationists that work with many state, federal and international ...

Admixture Increases Genetic Diversity and Adaptive Potential in Australasian Killer Whales
ABSTRACT Admixture is the exchange of genetic variation between differentiated demes, resulting in ancestry within a population coalescing in multiple ancestral source populations. Low‐latitude killer whales (Orcinus orca) populations typically have higher genetic diversity than those in more densely populated, high productivity and high‐latitude ...

The Genomics Revolution in Nonmodel Species: Predictions vs. Reality for Salmonids
ABSTRACT The increasing feasibility of whole‐genome sequencing has been highly anticipated, promising to transform our understanding of the biology of nonmodel species. Notably, dramatic cost reductions beginning around 2007 with the advent of high‐throughput sequencing inspired publications heralding the ‘genomics revolution’, with predictions about ...

ABSTRACT Population declines may have long‐term genetic consequences, including genetic erosion and inbreeding depression, which could affect species' evolutionary potential and increase their risk of extinction. Small populations are more vulnerable to genetic threats than common species, but even species with large populations can also be at risk of ...
