>Population Genetics has many roles in conservation:>Delineate ESU/DPS boundaries, stock identification (GSI), parentage based tagging, effective population size (Ne),and hatchery broodstock management, etc.

>Historically “data limited”.>Theory dating back to modern synthesis (Wright-Haldane-Fisher).>Based on the ‘neutral theory’ (Kimura 1968).

>What is ‘Conservation Genomics’ and is it different?

Short answer is NO. But see….(Primmer, 2009; Allendorf et al., 2010; Ouborg et al., 2010; Funk et al., 2012; Shaferet al., 2015, 2016; Benestan et al., 2016; Prince et al. 2016; Garner et al., 2016; Pearse 2016 )

1) Don’t assume selection.

2) Traits are not independent;consider the whole.

Good news!

>This means that for the most part we are already doing what we need to do from an evolutionary genetic perspective to protect genetic diversity.

>Continued action is needed.(better tools serve to improve efficiency)

>Protection of ancestral diversity plus recognition of ecotypic variants, regardless of underlying AGV.

Technical Limitations

False Positives and Negatives.-Polygenic traits, Pleiotropy, Epistasis,

Penetrance-Bias in detecting strong signals.-Will not capture all AGV.

>Unit of concern for conservation is population, not individual.-In contrast, medical genomics is individual-based.

>Marker-Assisted Selection in conservation?-Hatchery broodstock selection?

-Use of genotype at specific loci toselect individuals for breeding.

-Widely used for livestock and crops.

-Released animals must be fit in the environment.

Conclusions

Adaptive genomic variation can be targeted for conservation.Evaluate diversity using neutral and adaptive loci.

Even genes of major effect are probabilistic indicators ofindividual phenotype, and can’t capture the full extent of phenotypic variation related to fitness.

(Major exception; immune system genes)

Focus on evolutionary processes that promote diversity. This isconsistant with ‘evolutionarily enlightened management’ or ‘prescriptive evolution’

(Ashley et al., 2003; Smith et al., 2014; Pearse 2016).

Whataboutthefuture?“The last word in ignorance is the man who says of an animal or plant, "What good is it?" If the land mechanism as a whole is good, then every part is good, whether we understand it or not. If the biota, in the course of aeons, has built something we like but do not understand, then who but a fool would discard seemingly useless parts? To keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering.” ― Aldo Leopold, Round River: From the Journals of Aldo Leopold
