Abstract Under the recently adopted Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, 196 Parties committed to reporting status of genetic diversity for all species. To facilitate reporting, three indicators were developed, two which focus on processes contributing conservation: maintaining genetically distinct populations and ensuring are large enough maintain diversity. The major advantage these is that they can be estimated with or without DNA‐based data. However, demonstrating their...
The rapid expansion of avocado cultivation in Michoacán, Mexico, is one the drivers deforestation. We assessed degree fragmentation and functional connectivity remaining temperate forest within Avocado Belt prioritized patches that contribute most to using a network-based approach modelling different seed pollen dispersal scenarios, including two types patch attributes (size conservation). As landscape transformation region ongoing, we updated land-use land-cover maps through supervised...
Abstract Climate change and land use are two main drivers of global biodiversity decline, decreasing the genetic diversity that populations harbour altering patterns local adaptation. Landscape genomics allows measuring effect these anthropogenic disturbances on adaptation populations. However, both factors have rarely been considered simultaneously. Based a set 3660 SNPs from which 130 were identified as outliers by genome–environment association analysis (LFMM), we modelled spatial...
ABSTRACTThe Neotropical otter Lontra longicaudis is a top predator in aquatic ecosystems from North, Central, and South America subjected to substantial environmental distress due historic contemporary anthropogenic disturbance. Currently, L. considered ‘near threatened’ by the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List Threatened Species. This study renders first genomic resource longicaudis; its mitochondrial genome was assembled characterised detail. The AT-rich 16,436 bp...
Carbon storage is examined along the avocado frontier in state of Michoacán, Mexico, where native pine-oak forest being rapidly lost for sake production expansion. pools aboveground biomass carbon and belowground soil were compared across orchards neighboring forest. While was found to be significantly higher forests when orchards, there no significant difference between two land uses. Mixed effect regression models used parse out landscape scale heterogeneity that affecting beyond cover...
ABSTRACTEvaluating human–wildlife conflict is necessary to reach positive long-term management solutions and aid the conservation of biodiversity. We used indirect approaches evaluate Human–Neotropical otter in three river basins with high fishing activity western Mexico provided recommendations mitigate by identifying variables that increase risk predation ponds otters. Human–Otter was moderate, opinions community members toward otters were mostly negative, particularly those sector....
