Evolutionary Applications is an open access evolutionary biology journal, covering questions of health, social and economic significance.

Assessing genetic diversity is essential for conserving endangered populations, yet comprehensive genomic evaluations remain limited for many declining species. Here, we investigated inbreeding level...

The growing awareness of evolutionary responses to human-induced environmental changes highlights the need to better understand and integrate evolutionary perspectives into life sciences and, more br....

Populations can be granted conservation status because they harbour a set of unique traits, evolutionary histories, or ecological roles. Such populations are often isolated and specialised and, as su...

Understanding the genomic architecture of species of conservation concern is essential for fostering effective conservation initiatives. Current biodiversity assessment approaches increasingly incorp...

Climate change may hinder species' ability to evolutionarily adapt to environmental shifts. Assisted gene flow, introducing adaptive alleles into target populations, could be a viable solution for ke...

As biodiversity loss outpaces recovery, conservationists are increasingly turning to novel tools for preventing extinction, including cloning and in vitro gametogenesis of biobanked cells. However, r...
