Flowering plants - which appeared abruptly during the late Cretaceous Period - the origins of photosynthesis, and the early evolution of land plants are some of earth's most mysterious breakthroughs. The first seed plants appear in the fossil record about 350 million years ago, and flowering plants first appear approximately 120 million years ago, but the transitions between these major forms of plant life remain obscure. Prior to each breakthrough was a loPlantsEvolutionElectronic books.PlantsEvolution.581.3/8Essig Frederick B.943155MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459712303321Plant life2128391UNINA03776nam 2201081z- 450 991058020380332120220706(CKB)5690000000012052(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/87494(oapen)doab87494(oapen)87494(EXLCZ)99569000000001205220202207d2022 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierConservation Genetics for Management of Threatened Plant and Animal SpeciesBaselMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20221 online resource (162 p.)3-0365-4441-0 3-0365-4442-9 This book focuses on conservation genetic (and genomic) papers that demonstrate applied outcomes that inform practical threatened species management. We cover a broad range of species and genetic approaches, but focus on how conservation genetic information is used to underpin management actions for species recovery. Through the exposition of a diversity of approaches, we aim to demonstrate to conservation managers and researchers how conservation genetics can inform on-ground species management.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscResearch and information: generalbicsscadaptive potentialallele retentionAra macaoCamphorosmoideaecaptive breedingclimate dryingconservationconservation geneticsconservation managementcpDNAdiseasedisjunct distributionecosystem engineerecotypeEucalyptusevolutionarily significant unitEvolutionarily Significant Unitsex situ conservationgene flowgenetic diversitygenetic rescuegenetic restorationgenetic swampinggeographic expansiongolden bandicootGymnobelideus leadbeaterihigh throughput sequencinginbreedingLeadbeater's possumlocally unique allelesmarsupialMediterranean native troutmorphological deformitiesn/anatural hybridisationNGSpatchy abundancephylogeneticphylogeographypopulation fragmentationpopulation geneticspopulation structurepopulation viability analysisPsittacidaequendaremnantsingle nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markerssmall isolated populationSouth Australiasouthern brown bandicootsupplementationtaxonomythreatened marsupialtranslocationXcaretBiology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalResearch and information: generalOttewell Kymedt1293854Byrne MargaretedtOttewell KymothByrne MargaretothBOOK9910580203803321Conservation Genetics for Management of Threatened Plant and Animal Species3022785UNINA
