Conservation and the Genetics of Populations gives a comprehensive overview of the essential background, concepts, and tools needed to understand how genetic information can be used to conserve species threatened with extinction, and to manage species of ecological or commercial importance. New molecular techniques, statistical methods, and computer programs, genetic principles, and methods are becoming increasingly useful in the conservation of biological diversity.

Conclusion -- $t Backmatter 330 $aThis book analyzes the form and function of the English passive from a verb-based point of view. It takes the position that the various surface forms of the passive (with or without thematic subject, with or without object, with or without by-phrase, with or without auxiliary) have a common source and are determined by the interplay of the syntactic properties of the verb and general syntactic principles. Each structural element of the passive construction is examined separately, and the participle is considered the only defining component of the passive. Special emphasis is put on the existence of an implicit argument (ususally an agent) and its representation in the passive. A review of data from syntax, language acquisition, and psycholinguistics shows that the implicit agent is not just a conceptually understood argument. It is argued that it is represented at the level of argument structure and that this is what sets the passive apart from other patient-subject constructions. A corpus-based case study on the use of the passive in academic writing analyzes the use of the passive in this particular register. One of the findings is that about 20-25% of passives occur in constructions that do not require an auxiliary, a result that challenges corpus studies on the use of the passive that only consider full be-passives. It is also shown that new active-voice constructions have emerged that compete with the passive without having a more visible agent. The emergence of these constructions (such as "This paper argues...") is discussed in the context of changes in the rhetoric of scientific discourse. The book is mainly of interest to linguists and graduate students in the areas of English syntax, semantics, and pragmatics. 410 0$aTopics in English linguistics ;$v41. 606 $aEnglish language$xPassive voice 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVoice 606 $aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVerb phrase 606 $aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish language$xPassive voice. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVoice. 615 0$aGrammar, Comparative and general$xVerb phrase. 615 0$aEnglish language$xDiscourse analysis. 676 $a425 686 $aHF 318$2rvk 700 $aWanner$b Anja$01045878 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455303503321 996 $aDeconstructing the English passive$92478440 997 $aUNINA
