TAILIEUCHUNG - A Primer of Conservation Genetics

We have endeavoured to make A Primer of Conservation Genetics as com- This book is intended to provide a brief accessible introduction to the general principles of conservation genetics prehensible as possible to a broad range of readers. It is suitable for those undertaking introductory genetics courses at university, for students undertaking conservation biology courses and even for motivated first-year biology students who have completed lectures on basic Mendelian genetics and introductory population genetics (allele frequencies and Hardy--Weinberg equilibrium). Conservation professionals with little genetics background wishing for a brief authoritative introduction to conservation genetics should find it understandable. These include wildlife biologists and ecologists, zoo staff undertaking captive breeding programs, planners and managers. | A Primer of Conservation Genetics RF . R. Frankham Cambridge ss This page intentionally left blank A Primer of Conservation Genetics The biological diversity of our planet is rapidly being depleted due to direct and indirect consequences of human activities. As the size of animal and plant populations decreases loss of genetic diversity reduces their ability to adapt to changes in the environment with inbreeding depression an inevitable consequence for many species. This concise entry-level text provides an introduction to the role of genetics in conservation and presents the essentials of the discipline. Topics covered include loss of genetic diversity in small populations inbreeding and loss of fitness resolution of taxonomic uncertainties genetic management of threatened species contributions of molecular genetics to conservation The authors assume only a basic knowledge of Mendelian genetics and simple statistics making the book accessible to those with a limited background in these areas. Connections between conservation genetics and the wider field of conservation biology are interwoven throughout the book. The text is presented in an easy-to-follow format with main points and terms clearly highlighted. Worked examples are provided throughout to help illustrate key equations. A glossary and suggestions for further reading provide additional support for the reader and many beautiful pen-and-ink portraits of endangered species help bring the material to life. Written for short introductory-level courses in genetics conservation genetics and conservation biology this book will also be suitable for practising conservation biologists zoo biologists and wildlife managers needing a brief accessible account of the significance of genetics to conservation. dick frankham was employed in the Department of Biological Sciences at Macquarie University Sydney for 31 years and was Hrdy Visiting Professor at Harvard University for spring semester 2004.
