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 …

Hatchery fish stocking for stock enhancement has been operated at a massive and global
scale. However, the use of hatchery fish as a means of stock enhancement is highly …

Human-induced environmental change currently represents the single greatest threat to
global biodiversity. Species are typically adapted to the local environmental conditions in …

Salmonids rank among the most socioeconomically valuable fishes and the most targeted
species by stocking with hatchery‐reared individuals. Here, we used molecular parentage …

Supportive breeding and stocking performed with non‐native or domesticated fish to support
sport fishery industry is a common practice throughout the world. Such practices are likely to …

Habitat fragmentation affects the integrity of many species, but little is known about species‐
specific sensitivity to fragmentation. Here, we compared the genetic structure of four …

A large number of species and taxa have been studied for genetic polymorphism.
Microsatellites have been known as hypervariable neutral molecular markers with the …

In recent years, the land area under agriculture has declined as also has the rate of growth
in agricultural productivity while the demand for food continues to escalate. The world …

Stocking represents the most important management tool worldwide to increase and sustain
commercial and recreational fisheries in a context of overexploitation. Genetic impacts of this …

While the stocking of captive‐bred fish has been occurring for decades and has had
substantial immediate genetic and evolutionary impacts on wild populations, its long‐term …
