• Integrating genetic data into management of marine resources: how can we do it better? (2008, background): “Although census size is generally of primary interest to managers, effective population size is of considerable evolutionary and conservation relevance and can be estimated using genetic markers (Schwartz et al. 1998; Leberg 2005).”
• Estimation of census and effective population sizes: the increasing usefulness of DNA-based approaches (2010, methodology): “The second quotation above exemplifies the difficulty of estimating Ne directly from demographic data such as variance in reproductive success and thus the need for indirect genetic estimators (Harris and Allendorf 1989; Frankham 1995a, b; Leberg 2005 ).”
• The importance of considering genetic diversity in shark and ray conservation policies (2017, background): “Therefore, given the potential association between Ne and the probability of extinction, estimates of Ne may be useful as an additional criterion in the assessment of species vulnerability (Leberg 2005; Willoughby et al.”
• Linkage disequilibrium estimates of contemporary Ne using highly variable genetic markers: a largely untapped resource for applied conservation and evolution (2009, background): “Indeed, the rapid increase in applications in recent years has been fueled largely by those interested in conservation issues or the study of evolutionary processes in local populations that often are small (Schwartz et al. 1999, 2007; Leberg 2005; Palstra and Ruzzante 2008).”
• THE MOLECULAR TOOLBOX: GENETIC TECHNIQUES IN WILDLIFE ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT (2005, background): “Alternatively, one can determine the variance of allele frequencies in temporally spaced samples under the assumption that variance will be inversely proportional to the effective number of breeders (Spencer et al. 2000, Berthier et al. 2002, Leberg 2005).”
