Habitat loss and fragmentation: effects on genetic diversity and differentiation

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:"Throughout Earth’s natural history, habitats have undergone drastic changes in quality and extent, influencing the distribution of species worldwide. In the last few hundred years, human activities have destroyed natural habitats at an unprecedent rate, converting continuous habitat into fragmented and isolated patches (e.g., habitat loss and fragmentation, HL&F). Ecological and genetic studies have shown that such environmental changes have an overall negative effect on biodiversity."
