Effective population size (N e) is a key parameter in population genetics. It has important
applications in evolutionary biology, conservation genetics and plant and animal breeding …

Population census size (NC) and effective population sizes (N e) are two crucial parameters
that influence population viability, wildlife management decisions, and conservation …

In many marine species, high levels of gene flow ensure that the genetic signal from
population differentiation is weak. As a consequence, various errors associated with …

Effective population size, Ne, is a key evolutionary parameter that determines the levels of
genetic variation and efficacy of selection. Estimation and interpretation of Ne are essential …

Landscape genetics has emerged as a new research area that integrates population
genetics, landscape ecology and spatial statistics. Researchers in this field can combine the …

By providing new approaches to the investigation of demographic and evolutionary
dynamics of wild populations, molecular genetics has led to fundamental changes in our …

Genetic stochasticity due to small population size contributes to population extinction,
especially when population fragmentation disrupts gene flow. Estimates of effective …

Effective population size (Ne) determines the strength of genetic drift in a population and has
long been recognized as an important parameter for evaluating conservation status and …

Although the effects of overfishing on species diversity and abundance are well
documented, threats to the genetic diversity of marine fish populations have so far been …

Since the first investigation 25 years ago, the application of genetic tools to address
ecological and evolutionary questions in elasmobranch studies has greatly expanded. Major …
