Testing assisted gene flow in restoration of winterfat, Krascheninnikovia lanata, a Great Basin desert shrub
… weed invasion can pose challenges for natural regeneration of native plant communities. To combat these challenges and increase the diversity and density of native plant communities, active restoration is used to restore landscapes, and increasingly, practitioners are considering the use of …

Evolutionary impacts of assisted gene flow: Fitness consequences of hybridization along a geo-climatic gradient in an annual prairie legume
… population persistence. Populations with larger genetic variation likely have greater capacity for adaptation, but limited population sizes and restricted gene flow decrease this potential. Assisted gene flow (AGF) aims to increase adaptive capacity by introducing genetic material from …

Evolutionary and conservation genetics of the Seychelles warbler (Acrocephalus sechellensis)
… action interact to shape neutral and adaptive genetic variation within and among populations. To accomplish this, I studied an island species, the Seychelles warbler (Acrocephalus sechellensis), with microsatellite markers and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes as measures of neutral …
