Dispersal in many organisms is asymmetric by sex, a pattern that is often identified through
the use of genetic tools. Sex-biased dispersal (SBD) is thought to derive from the varying …

Abstract Information on genetic relationships among individuals is essential to many studies
of the behaviour and ecology of wild organisms. Parentage and relatedness assays based …

Conservation management strategies for many highly threatened species include
conservation breeding to prevent extinction and enhance recovery. Pairing decisions for …

Urbanization often substantially influences animal movement and gene flow. However, few
studies to date have examined gene flow of the same species across multiple cities. In this …

Monitoring genetic diversity in wild populations is a central goal of ecological and
evolutionary genetics and is critical for conservation biology. However, genetic studies of …

Conservation translocations are becoming more common to assist in the management of
threatened native species. While many translocation programs focus on maximizing survival …

Estimating kinship is fundamental for studies of evolution, conservation, and breeding.
Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and other restriction based genotyping methods have …

Analysing the impact of anthropogenic and natural river barriers on the dispersal of aquatic
and semi‐aquatic species may be critical for their conservation. Knowledge of kinship …

Understanding the role of adaptation in species' responses to climate change is important
for evaluating the evolutionary potential of populations and informing conservation efforts …

The ecological effects of climate change have been shown in most major taxonomic groups;
however, the evolutionary consequences are less well‐documented. Adaptation to new …
