Ocean's eleven: a critical evaluation of the role of population, evolutionary and molecular genetics in the management of wild fisheries (2015, background): “Stocks are commonly defined or identified in genetic terms, because: first, it may be desirable to manage genetic variation in its own right to ensure that a harvested species retains specific adaptive traits or enough genetic variation to adapt to environmental change (Carvalho and Hauser 1994; Ken”
The importance of considering genetic diversity in shark and ray conservation policies (2017, background): “However, the effective application of genetic data to the management plans for several marine species, including sharks and rays, remains a challenge (Kenchington et al. 2003).”
Seascape genetics and the spatial ecology of marine populations (2008, background): “Better linking of genetics with ecological inquiry will hopefully lead to more widespread consideration of the impact of fisheries harvest practices and spatial management strategies on population-level genetic diversity and effective population size (Kenchington et al. 2003; Waples et al. 2008).”
