• Seed supply for broadscale restoration: maximizing evolutionary potential (2008, background): “Consequently, the utility of these to act as major seed sources may be limited with negative genetic and demographic consequences emerging as populations fall below 100–200 reproductive plants (Young et al. 2000; Lienert 2004; Lowe et al. 2005; Broadhurst and Young 2006; Yates et al. 2007).”
• Habitat fragmentation effects on fitness of plant populations – a review (2004, background): “…relating documented population extinction to original population size (Matthies, 1991) or those modelling real-world data (Eriksson & Eriksson, 2000; Oostermeijer, 2000; Young et al., 2000), as well as by an extensive experiment with the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster (Montgomery et al., 2000).”
• Low S‐allele numbers limit mate availability, reduce seed set and skew fitness in small populations of a self‐incompatible plant (2010, background): “Previous crossing experiments show thatR. leptorrhynchoides has a sporophytically controlled, single-locus, multi-allelic SI systemwith dominance among alleles (Young et al. 2000a).”
• Genetic Consequences of Habitat Fragmentation in Black-and-Gold Howler (Alouatta caraya) Populations from Northern Argentina (2010, background): “Small and isolated populations can lose genetic variation within short periods of time, i.e. plants (Young et al. 2000), fish (Sato and Harada 2008); birds (Bouzat et al. 1998); mammals (Mitrovski et al. 2008).”
• Relationship between Population Size and Fitness (2005, background): “Since the data for Reed and Frankham (2003) were gathered, a number of other investigators have reported a positive relationship between population size and fitness (Dudash & Fenster 2000; Eisto et al. 2000; Young et al. 2000; Cassel et al. 2001; Jacquemyn et al. 2001; Mavraganis & Eckert 2001; Lien”
• Landscape structure influences pollinator movements and directly affects plant reproductive success (2012, background): “…the likelihood of extinction of isolated plant and animal populations due to reduced gene flow and inbreeding depression (Fahrig and Merriam 1994, Young et al. 1996, 2000, Dudash and Fenster 2000, Eisto et al. 2000, Kéry et al. 2000) and due to a greater susceptibility to environmental…”
• Genetics and extinction (2005, background): “Problems associated with loss of self-incompatibility alleles in small populations will not be addressed (Young et al., 2000).”
• Assessing the benefits and risks of translocations in changing environments: a genetic perspective (2011, background): “High levels of gene flow maintain adequate levels of self-incompatibility alleles (see (Young et al. 2000a) and require that multiple populations are used as sources for translocations, or that recipient populations are augmented frequently.”
