Translocations and the Preservation of Allelic Diversity

A literature review revealed that genetic variability is often reduced in refuge populations and that such reductions typically involve the loss of alleles, and it is suggested that translocated populations be examined periodically for losses of genetic variability.
Phenotypic plasticity and contemporary evolution in introduced populations: evidence from translocated populations of white sands pupfish (Cyrpinodon tularosa)

It is concluded that phenotypic plasticity potentially facilitates directional evolution of body deepening for introduced pupfish populations introduced to brackish, lacustrine habitats at two different time points in the recent past.
Morphological Divergence of Native and Recently Established Populations of White Sands Pupfish (Cyprinodon tularosa)

Differences in body shape and the level of sexual dimorphism were significant between the two brackish spring populations, indicating that deep-bodied shapes may be achieved from different anatomical configurations.
Evaluation of the introduction history and genetic diversity of a serially introduced fish population in New Zealand

- 7 April 2012
A microsatellite assay of populations from both the native and introduced range was conducted to verify the documented history of invasion and to assess the impact of serial introduction events on the genetic diversity of recently established New Zealand populations, finding sharp reductions in the allelic richness and the heterozygosity of the introduced populations relative to the original native populations, indicating the presence of founder effects.

Translocations and rapid evolutionary responses in recently established populations of western mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis)
- C. Stockwell, S. Weeks

- 1 May 1999
Examination of life history variation of four populations of western mosquitofish that were derived from a common ancestral population 55–58 years earlier suggests that translocations may lead to rapid evolutionary responses of targeted taxa.
Contemporary evolution meets conservation biology II: impediments to integration and application
- M. Kinnison, A. Hendry, C. Stockwell
- Environmental ScienceEcological research
- 13 September 2007
Issues that may limit the integration of contemporary evolution into conservation biology are discussed—with the intent that recognition of these limitations may foster research, discussion and resolution.
Genetic evidence for two evolutionarily significant units of White Sands pupfish
- C. Stockwell, M. Mulvey, A. Jones
- Biology
- 1 August 1998
The data indicate that the Lost River and Mound Spring populations descended from translocations from the Salt Creek population, and the recognition of two evolutionarily significant units for the White Sands pupfish: Malpais Spring and Salt Creek is suggested.
