Human population density and land use is causing changes in animal genetic diversity, according to researchers at McGill University. The loss of genetic diversity will hinder the ability of plant and animal populations to adapt to changing environments [Credit: McGill University] The findings reported in the journal Ecology Letters, show that environmental changes caused by humans are leading to changes in genetic variation in thousands of species of birds, fish, insects, and mammals. The…

Domesticated crop plants tend to have low genetic diversity because they have usually been selectively bred from varieties that are genetically related. This cross-breeding approach produces high-yield varieties, but it can also increase susceptibility to disease and pests.[1] Cross-breeding these…
