Klappentext zu „Molecular Genetics and Genomics Tools in Biodiversity Conservation “
This book provides insight into the use of molecular and genomic techniques to the study of populations of critically important species at various geographical scales. It delves into a wide range of issues relevant to biodiversity conservation, such as population differentiation, landscape genomics, ecological interactions, phylogenetics, phylogeography, metagenomics, molecular methods, and data processing. The current rate of biodiversity loss is unprecedented and valuable genetic resources are being lost at an alarmingly rate. Effective strategies to conserve these genetic resources are essential to maintain healthy ecosystems with inter-dependent species. The book is an invaluable resource for training undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and for young researchers. This book is particularly useful for the policy makers and academics who want to learn about important concepts in population and conservation genetics and genomics.

Autoren-Porträt
Ashwani Kumar is presently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany at Dr. Harisingh Gour Vishwavidyalaya (Central University), Sagar, India (since 2013). Plant-microbe interactions, metagenomics, lignocellulosic biofuels, and bioremediation are among his scientific interests. He earned his Ph.D. in bioenergy from IIT Delhi and served as a postdoctoral scholar (2011-2013) at Durban University of Technology and Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa. He earned numerous awards, including the GSEP Fellowship at the University of Saskatchewan in Canada (2009-2010), the Claude Leon Fellowship (2012-2014), and the NRF Fellowship (2012-2014) at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa. In 2019, he was awarded the GIAN Program, MHRD, Government of India, Shastri Indo-Canada Mobility Program Fellowship at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada. He is a life member of the BRSI, the NIE, and the ISEB in India, and he was recently chosen as a Fellow of the International Society of Environmental Botanists and the National Institute of Ecology.Baharul Choudhury is a trained biologist with several years of research experience in ecology, evolution, conservation biology, population genetics and genomics. He obtained Ph.D. from Assam University, Silchar (India), and moved to Canada to pursue a second Ph.D. at Concordia University. Baharul was able to secure several fellowships including the prestigious FRQNT Merit Scholarship from Quebec Government. Following that, Baharul started working as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Concordia University, to study the rewiring in gene regulatory mechanism in Ascomycetes fungi during evolution. He then moved to the University of Toronto for another Postdoctoral Fellowship and studied genomic evolution sex chromosomes in the plant genus Rumex. Baharul recently started a new instructor position at Queen's University, Canada and active in teaching and learning, especially biology curriculum development. He is a lifemember of the
