Integrating species life‐history traits and patterns of deforestation in amphibian conservation planning (2010, background): “However, this reduced migration along fragmented landscape can result in isolated and patchy populations that will be more prone to the negative effects of inbreeding and bottlenecks (Peakall & Lindenmayer, 2006; Dixo et al., 2009).”
The Brazilian Atlantic Forest: A Shrinking Biodiversity Hotspot (2011, background): “%) have been shown to be highly influenced by connectivity patterns (Martensen et al. 2008; Dixo and Metzger 2009; Dixo et al. 2009).”
Ecological and evolutionary consequences of living in a defaunated world (2013, neutral): “(Dixo et al., 2009; Gilpin and Soulé, 1986).”
Impacts of habitat loss and restoration on amphibian populations (2009, background): “Reductions in genetic diversity, caused by the lack of connectivity between populations, have been demonstrated in urban populations of the common frog (Rana temporaria) in England (Hitchings and Beebee 1997) and in the toad Rhinella ornata in Brazilian coastal forests (Dixo et al. 2009).”
Eco‐evolutionary dynamics in fragmented landscapes (2017, neutral): “As one empirical observation of this, Dixo et al. (2009) showed in natural populations of the toad Rhinella ornate that population genetic diversity was lower in small forest fragments than in larger ones.”
