Effect of Propagule Size and Landscape Structure on Morphological Differentiation and Asymmetry in Experimentally Introduced Roesel's Bush-Crickets

Article Abstract:

Research on Roesel's bush-crickets emphasizes the importance of habitat connectivity and large propagule sizes in species introduction. It also indicates that males and females of a given species may need to be considered separately in assessments of fluctuating asymmetry and morphology.

Linking Wild and Captive Populations to Maximize Species Persistence: Optimal Translocation Strategies

Article Abstract:

Stochastic dynamic programming and Markov-chain modeling are used to target optimal state-dependent methods for conservation efforts applied to captive and wild species populations. Threshold sizes and carrying capacities are demonstrated using the Arabian oryx.
