Abstract

Genomic data are becoming increasingly affordable and easy to collect, and new tools for their analysis are appearing rapidly. Conservation biologists are interested in using this information to assist in management and planning but are typically limited financially and by the lack of genomic resources available for non-model taxa. It is therefore important to be aware of the pitfalls as well as the benefits of applying genomic approaches. Here, we highlight recent methods aimed at standardizing population assessments of genetic variation, inbreeding, and forms of genetic load and methods that help identify past and ongoing patterns of genetic interchange between populations, including those subjected to recent disturbance. We emphasize challenges in applying some of these methods and the need for adequate bioinformatic support. We also consider the promises and challenges of applying genomic approaches to understand adaptive changes in natural populations to predict their future adaptive capacity.

基因组学如何帮助或阻碍野生动物保护?
基因组数据变得越来越便宜和易于收集,用于分析的新工具也迅速出现。保护生物学家有兴趣利用这些信息来帮助管理和规划,但通常资金有限,而且缺乏可用于非模式分类群的基因组资源。因此,重要的是要意识到应用基因组方法的陷阱和好处。在这里,我们强调了最近旨在标准化遗传变异、近亲繁殖和遗传负荷形式的种群评估的方法,以及有助于识别种群之间过去和正在进行的遗传交换模式的方法,包括那些最近受到干扰的种群。我们强调在应用其中一些方法方面的挑战,以及需要足够的生物信息学支持。我们还考虑了应用基因组方法来了解自然种群的适应性变化以预测其未来适应能力的前景和挑战。《动物生物科学年度评论》第12卷预计最终在线出版日期为2024年2月。请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates用于修订估算。

期刊介绍: The Annual Review of Animal Biosciences is primarily dedicated to the fields of biotechnology, genetics, genomics, and breeding, with a special focus on veterinary medicine. This includes veterinary pathobiology, infectious diseases and vaccine development, and conservation and zoo biology. The publication aims to address the needs of scientists studying both wild and domesticated animal species, veterinarians, conservation biologists, and geneticists.
