The crucial role of genome-wide genetic variation in conservation Open
The unprecedented rate of extinction calls for efficient use of genetics to help conserve biodiversity. Several recent genomic and simulation-based studies have argued that the field of conservation biology has placed too much focus on con…

Waste not, want not: Microsatellites remain an economical and informative technology for conservation genetics Open
Comparisons of microsatellites and single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have found that SNPs outperform microsatellites in population genetic analyses, questioning the continued utility of microsatellites in population and landscape gene…

The relevance of pedigrees in the conservation genomics era Open
Over the past 50 years conservation genetics has developed a substantive toolbox to inform species management. One of the most long‐standing tools available to manage genetics—the pedigree—has been widely used to characterize diversity and…

Comparing genome-based estimates of relatedness for use in pedigree-based conservation management Open
Researchers have long debated which estimator of relatedness best captures the degree of relationship between two individuals. In the genomics era, this debate continues, with relatedness estimates being sensitive to the methods used to ge…

Landscape genetic inferences vary with sampling scenario for a pond‐breeding amphibian Open
A critical decision in landscape genetic studies is whether to use individuals or populations as the sampling unit. This decision affects the time and cost of sampling and may affect ecological inference. We analyzed 334 Columbia spotted f…

Asymmetrical gene flow of the recently delisted passerine black‐capped vireo (<i>Vireo atricapilla</i>) indicates source‐sink dynamics in central Texas Open
Habitat fragmentation can produce metapopulations or source‐sink systems in which dispersal in crucial for population maintenance. Our objective was to investigate connectivity among black‐capped vireo ( Vireo atricapilla ) populations in …
