Genetic consequences of isolation: island tammar wallaby (Macropus eugenii) populations and the conservation of threatened species

2011-12-01

Abstract excerpt

Isolation and restricted gene flow can lead to genetic deterioration in populations. Populations of many species are increasingly becoming fragmented due to human impacts and active management is required to prevent further extinctions. Islands provide an ideal location to protect species from many mainland threatening processes such as habitat loss and fragmentation, disease and competition/predation from introdu...
