Genetic effects of harvest on wild animal populations.

Trends in ecology & evolution - 1 Jun 2008

Allendorf Fred W, England Phillip R, Luikart Gordon, Ritchie Peter A, Ryman Nils

Abstract excerpt

Human harvest of animals in the wild occurs in terrestrial and aquatic habitats throughout the world and is often intense. Harvest has the potential to cause three types of genetic change: alteration of population subdivision, loss of genetic variation, and selective genetic changes. To sustain the productivity of harvested populations, it is crucial to incorporate genetic considerations into management....
