Conservation of genetic diversity, one of the three main forms of biodiversity, is a
fundamental concern in conservation biology as it provides the raw material for evolutionary …

Intraspecific variation is a major component of biodiversity, yet it has received relatively little
attention from governmental and nongovernmental organizations, especially with regard to …

Abstract Background New Caledonia is renowned as one of the world's most significant
biodiversity hotpots. The nutrient-deficiency and cations imbalances of ultramafic soils …

Over the past decade, several studies and reviews have documented the apparent
resilience of widespread tree species to the population genetic consequences of habitat …

Despite longstanding research, how anthropogenic disturbance affects the genetics of tree
populations remains poorly understood. Although empirical evidence often conflicts with …

Tree species are thought to be relatively resistant to habitat fragmentation because of their
longevity and their aptitude for extensive gene flow, although recent empirical studies have …

Trees are key ecosystem engineers. Many analyses of the genetic diversity of forest trees
over substantial parts of their distributional ranges are appearing. These studies are of …

The OCBIL theory comprises a set of hypotheses to comprehend the biota of old, climatically
buffered, infertile landscapes (OCBILs). Here, we review evidence from the literature to …

The analysis of genetic structure and variability of isolated species is of critical importance in
evaluating whether stochastic or human-caused factors are affecting rare species. Low …

Recently it has been estimated that one third of biodiversity threats are driven by consumer
demand from outside the country in which the threat occurs. This occurs when the …
