Conservation Genetics and Non-Native Species

Conservation Genetics textbook cover - Allendorf and Luikart

New tools in quantitative genetics allow FLBS researchers to gain a more detailed understanding of the relationships between native and non-native species and to explore their interactions within the context of climate change and other environmental influences.

More information is available on the FLBS Conservation Genetics page.
