Abstract The California Conservation Genomics Project (CCGP) is a unique, critically
important step forward in the use of comprehensive landscape genetic data to modernize …

Restoring gene flow into small, isolated populations can alleviate genetic load and decrease
extinction risk (ie, genetic rescue), yet gene flow is rarely augmented as a conservation …

Genetic rescue–ameliorating inbreeding depression and restoring genetic diversity of inbred
populations through gene flow-is valuable in wildlife conservation. Empirically validated …

Thousands of small populations are at increased risk of extinction because genetics and
evolutionary biology are not well‐integrated into conservation planning–a major lost …

The breeding of threatened species in captivity for release is a central tool in conservation
biology. Given gloomy predictions for biodiversity trends in the Anthropocene, captive …

Theory predicts that genetic erosion in small, isolated populations of endangered species
can be assessed using estimates of neutral genetic variation, yet this widely used approach …

Human-driven habitat fragmentation and loss have led to a proliferation of small and
isolated plant and animal populations with high risk of extinction. One of the main threats to …

The koala, the only extant species of the marsupial family Phascolarctidae, is classified as
'vulnerable'due to habitat loss and widespread disease. We sequenced the koala genome …

Conservation genetics is the genetics of rarity and extinction. This discipline has arisen in
response to the depletion of the biological diversity of the planet through habitat loss …

Conservation genetics is a well‐established scientific field. However, limited information
transfer between science and practice continues to hamper successful implementation of …
