Nice thread from @certhionyx on our new paper: #GeneticDiversity, population structure, and #ConservationGenetics to inform management of northern quolls 🧬@OMGenomes
26 Sep 2022
📕 How have cane toads influenced the population genomic structure of the northern quoll? Read about it in our new open-access @molecology article: doi.org/10.1111/mec.16680

The current #environment crisis threatens the long-term viability of species. In this perspective, we propose to combine genomic analyses with modelling to improve extinction risk and recovery assessments. See below. #ClimateCrisis #Genomics #conservation biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

An incredible scientific effort to understand genetic diversity losses in the #Anthropocene. Well timed for the @UNBiodiversity negotiations this fall and winter. Message: We are losing vital genetic diversity and resilience and must act! @gbike_cost @SCBConGen @GEOBON_org
22 Sep 2022
Our paper "Genetic diversity loss in the Anthropocene" is out in @ScienceMagazine!
We study how genetic diversity is lost by habitat loss to help define @UNBiodiversity #Sustainable targets

Re-sharing this preprint via BioRxiv - if you use non-invasive samples and/or do #conservationgenetics #ConGen then this might be of interest!

Report- first assessment of the feasibility of genetic diversity indicators, across thousands of species. Open access- free to all! @UNBiodiversity @GEOBON_org @fieldgenomics @gbike_cost @SCBConGen @MikeBruford Now we need to do it in more detail & in less wealthy countries.

Our paper applying indicators for genetic diversity for @UNBiodiversity post-2020 #biodiversity framework using Swedish #redlist data is out. Thanks Henrik Thurfjell @SLU Artdatabanken, @PerSG3, Robert Ekblom @naturvardsverk, & @seanmhoban sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

We are interested in groups ranging from those with conservation genetics as their core focus to more broadly focused groups with conservation geneticists on staff @mhmeek @CinnamonMittan @congenetics @gbike_cost @SCBConGen @GEOBON_org

I’m collaborating on a project to identify all the organisations and professional societies in the world that are incorporating #genetics in species management and #conservation. What are groups you know about (global, regional, and local)? #ConservationGenetics
