Global Biodiversity Change: The Bad, the Good, and the Unknown (2012, background): “Other studies have looked at patterns of genetic diversity in populations impacted by humans (102, 103).”
The importance of considering genetic diversity in shark and ray conservation policies (2017, background): “Indeed, these anthropogenic pressures can cause changes in genetic diversity through population reduction, thus compromising these species’ ability to evolve (DiBattista 2008).”
Eco‐evolutionary dynamics in fragmented landscapes (2017, unknown): “This fragmented structure can influence genetic variation (DiBattista 2008), and can induce a ‘meta-functioning’ at the levels of populations, communities and ecosystems, which modifies both ecological interactions and most evolutionary forces (such as the force of drift, selection and gene flow)…”
Genetic diversity is considered important but interpreted narrowly in country reports to the Convention on Biological Diversity: Current actions and indicators are insufficient (2021, unknown): “Major drivers of genetic diversity loss include climate change, habitat fragmentation and destruction, over-harvest, and reduction of population sizes (IPBES, 2019; CBD, 2014; DiBattista, 2008; Aguilar et al., 2008; Pinsky and Palumbi, 2014; Schlaepfer et al., 2018).”
