Evolutionary genetic considerations should be an important part of translocation strategies, but there is often confusion about concepts and goals. Here, we provide a classification of translocations based on specific genetic goals for both threatened species and ecological restoration, separating targets based on ‘genetic rescue’ of current population fitness from those focused on maintaining adaptive potential. We then provide a framework for assessing the genetic benefits and risks associated with translocations and provide guidelines for managers focused on conserving biodiversity and evolutionary processes. Case studies are developed to illustrate the framework.

Building evolutionary resilience for conserving biodiversity under climate change / Carla M. Sgro in Evolutionary applications, 4 (2) (2011) 

Public Citation [article]  inEvolutionary applications > 4 (2) (2011) . - 326-337 Titre : Building evolutionary resilience for conserving biodiversity under climate change Type de document : Imprimé Auteurs : Carla M. Sgro ; Andrew J. Lowe ; Ary A. Hoffmann Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : 326-337 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : [LOTERRE-Biodiversité] Changement climatique [CBNPMP-Thématique] Biodiversité [CBNPMP-Thématique] Diversité génétique Résumé : Evolution occurs rapidly and is an ongoing process in our environments. Evolutionary principles need to be built into conservation efforts, particularly given the stressful conditions organisms are increasingly likely to experience because of climate change and ongoing habitat fragmentation. The concept of evolutionary resilience is a way of emphasizing evolutionary processes in conservation and landscape planning. From an evolutionary perspective, landscapes need to allow in situ selection and capture high levels of genetic variation essential for responding to the direct and indirect effects of climate change. We summarize ideas that need to be considered in planning for evolutionary resilience and suggest how they might be incorporated into policy and management to ensure that resilience is maintained in the face of environmental degradation.
