Heredity - The effective size of the Scandinavian wolf population is too small for both short- and long-term conservation

Measuring inbreeding via runs of homozygosity (ROH) captures realized autozygosity and can infer inbreeding timing through ROH length. A growing body of literature links the proportion of the genome ....

Anthropogenic disturbance can drive hybridization by altering pre-mating reproductive barriers. Moran et al. pair population genomic surveys with water chemistry and GIS data to show that human develo...

Bivalve transmissible neoplasias (BTNs) are transmissible cancers that have arisen in multiple bivalve species, including Eastern soft-shell clam (...

Life history diversity in salmonids contributes to population resilience, yet the mechanisms driving contemporary life history change remain difficult to disentangle from demographic and environmental...

The rule change ends a safeguard that had been in place for 50 years and could hasten the demise of imperiled animals.

Wildfires are among the most pressing environmental challenges of the 21st century, intensified by the accumulation of forest fuels after a century of fire suppression policies. Although fuel-reductio...

Genetic assessments serve as powerful tools to evaluate the effects of anthropogenic habitat fragmentation on natural populations. In the Klamath River Basin, construction of four dams from 1912 to 1...

Abstract. Habitat loss contributes to extinction risk in multiple ways. Genetically, small populations can face an ‘extinction vortex’—a positive feedback

Background The garden dormouse (Eliomys quercinus) is one of the fastest-declining mammals in Europe, and action is needed to prevent further population losses. The primary causes of declines are not ...

Methods using environmental nucleic acids have become highly effective for monitoring aquatic biodiversity, with an array of suitable use cases, including metrics for fisheries assessment. Traditiona...

With increasing habitat fragmentation and population isolation, inbreeding becomes a pressing concern for the persistence of wildlife populations. Detailed inbreeding monitoring is crucial for assess...

Interactions between hatchery-origin fish and wild populations of salmonids raise concerns about genetic diversity, productivity, and ecological integrity. Monitoring hatchery-origin reproduction in n...

Population bottlenecks can lead to evolutionary dead ends by eroding genetic diversity and intensifying inbreeding. Although theory predicts possible escape routes, direct observations of this process...

We present AmpliRAD, a novel sequencing method that integrates a multiplex PCR step into traditional RAD-seq protocols to enable the simultaneous generation of genome-wide SNP data and targeted genot...
