DNA-based Approach to Wildlife Conservation: What Can and Can’t be Done?
In many cases field biology can greatly benefit from use of modern genetic methods and ready-to-use test systems, promoting ease of organism identification and quantitative means to assess population structure and sizes: Vast DNA sequence databases and available lab protocols make it possible to ide...
