Effect of captivity on genetic variance for five traits in the large milkweed bug (Oncopeltus fasciatus).

Heredity - 1 Jul 2004

Rodríguez-Clark K M

Abstract excerpt

Understanding the changes in genetic variance which may occur as populations move from nature into captivity has been considered important when populations in captivity are used as models of wild ones. However, the inherent significance of these changes has not previously been appreciated in a conservation context: are the methods aimed at founding captive populations with gene diversity representative of natural...
