Current approaches to biodiversity conservation are largely based on geographic areas,
ecosystems, ecological communities, and species, with less attention on genetic diversity …

Assessments of population genetic structure have become an increasing focus as they can
provide valuable insight into patterns of migration and gene flow. structure, the most highly …

Since allozymes were first used to assess genetic diversity in the 1960s and 1970s,
biologists have attempted to characterize gene pools and conserve the diversity observed in …

Understanding how biological and environmental factors interactively shape the global
distribution of plant and animal genetic diversity is fundamental to biodiversity conservation …

A key goal of conservation is to protect biodiversity by supporting the long-term persistence
of viable, natural populations of wild species. Conservation practice has long been guided …

The global loss of biodiversity continues at an alarming rate. Genomic approaches have
been suggested as a promising tool for conservation practice as scaling up to genome-wide …

The species problem has triggered the publication of an almost infinite number of theoretical
and practical studies, including quite a number of books. I should, therefore, perhaps briefly …

Background Use of genomic tools to characterize wildlife populations has increased in
recent years. In the past, genetic characterization has been accomplished with more …

Genomic data have the potential to revolutionize the delineation of conservation units (CUs)
by allowing the detection of adaptive genetic variation, which is otherwise difficult for rare …

Populations of many species are genetically adapted to local historical climate conditions.
Yet most forecasts of species' distributions under climate change have ignored local …
