Inbreeding in reintroduced populations: the effects of early reintroduction history and contemporary processes
Maintaining genetic variation and minimizing inbreeding are central goals of conservation
genetics. It is therefore crucial to understand the important population parameters that affect …

Simulating retention of rare alleles in small populations to assess management options for species with different life histories
Preserving allelic diversity is important because it provides the capacity for adaptation and
thus enables long‐term population viability. Allele retention is difficult to predict in animals …
