Genetic guidelines for translocations: Maintaining intraspecific diversity in the lion (Panthera leo)

Laura D. Bertola et al.

Summary: Conservation translocations are crucial for large wildlife species like the lion, but must consider genetic background to prevent homogenization. A decision-making tool is provided for 132 lion populations/conservation units, aiding managers in making informed choices. Analysis of international lion trade reveals potential risks to genetic diversity, emphasizing the importance of genetic considerations in conservation management.

An inconvenient misconception: Climate change is not the principal driver of biodiversity loss

Tim Caro et al.

Summary: The current perception that climate change is the principal threat to biodiversity is premature. It is important to refocus conservation efforts on habitat destruction and overexploitation, which are more urgent threats to biodiversity. Protecting ecosystems is not only crucial for biodiversity conservation, but also the only viable and economically feasible global strategy to reverse climate change.

Global genetic diversity status and trends: towards a suite of Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) for genetic composition

Sean Hoban et al.

Summary: Biodiversity is crucial for the resilience, function, economies, and well-being of ecosystems, but understanding how it sustains ecosystems under stress and environmental change requires new approaches to biodiversity data. The Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO BON) has developed Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) as fundamental metrics to aggregate and interpret biodiversity observation data. Genetic Composition EBVs (Genetic EBVs), which measure within-species genetic variation, are proposed and ranked according to relevance, sensitivity to change, generalizability, scalability, feasibility, and data availability. The implementation of Genetic EBVs faces challenges in terms of aggregation, standardization, and costs, but advances in genetic data collection and availability provide opportunities for their integration into global conservation policy.

Distinct mtDNA lineages in free-ranging Ammotragus(aoudad) from the United States indicate multiple introductions from northern Africa

Emily A. Wright et al.

Summary: Translocation records indicate that aoudad populations in the United States are a product of multiple human-mediated introductions. Genetic analysis shows high genetic diversity among US populations and suggests the presence of two subspecies, supporting the hypothesis of multiple introductions from multiple sources.

Diversity, distribution and conservation of land mammals in Mauritania, North-West Africa

Jose Carlos Brito et al.

Summary: Detailed knowledge about biodiversity distribution is critical for monitoring the biological effects of global change processes. However, biodiversity knowledge gaps, especially in the desert biome, hinder the monitoring of conservation trends. The study assessed the diversity, distribution, and conservation of land mammals in Mauritania. Results showed concentrations of mammal species richness in coastal areas, along the Senegal River valley, and in mountain plateaus. The current work serves as a baseline for future research on threatened mammals and highlights the need for collaborative action to ensure the long-term conservation of land mammals in Mauritania.

The role of Sahara highlands in the diversification and desert colonization of the Bosc's fringe-toed lizard

Andre Vicente Liz et al.

Summary: The biogeographic history of the Sahara-Sahel desert is closely related to extreme and fluctuating palaeoclimate and diverse topography. Through genetic analysis and species' climate-niche modeling, it was found that Acanthodactylus boskianus formed four spatially structured mitochondrial lineages in the Sahara-Sahel desert region, with several parapatric sub-lineages originating during the Late Pleistocene-Holocene and the Plio-Pleistocene. Climatic refugia were located in mountains and desert fringes, remaining consistent for both time periods.

Population structure and genetic diversity of non-native aoudad populations

Suncica Stipoljev et al.

Summary: The genetic diversity of European aoudad populations is relatively low, with individuals likely originating from multiple genetic sources. The Sierra Espuna population in Spain is the only one where multiple haplotypes have been detected.

Hunting pressure is a key contributor to the impending extinction of Bornean wild cattle

Penny C. Gardner et al.

Summary: Widespread and unregulated hunting of ungulates in Southeast Asia is causing population declines and local extinctions. A study on Bornean banteng populations in Sabah suggests that active management is needed to prevent further declines and extinctions based on connectivity into 4 management units.
