Invasive Species in a Globalized World

Pages : 427
Book Description
Global trade and the spread of human populations have increasingly moved thousands of native animal and plant species across the natural barriers that have kept them ecologically separated for millions of years. Because some of them thrive in their new regions and harm the environment, the economy, and human health, the prevention and management of such invasive species has become a major local, national, and international policy initiative. Yet even though ecologists have been studying the negative (and sometimes positive) environmental impacts of invasive species and trying to curb their proliferation, and even though their work has in some cases stimulated public conversation and policy, politicians have generally ignored their recommendations. As a result, ecologists have achieved limited success in slowing the spread of invasives. They ve been realizing that in order to fully characterize the impacts of these species, they need to engage with other relevant disciplines across the social and legal sciences as well as the humanities. Drawing together a wide variety of ecologists, historians, economists, legal scholars, policymakers, and communication scholars, Invasive Species in a Globalized World aims to facilitate a dialogue among these various disciplines in order to fully understand invasives and stop their spread. Addressing the numerous challenges associated with reducing invasive impacts, the contributors provide direct policy recommendations, strategies for communicating the risks of invasive species, and insight into how public discourse drives our response to these risks."

Molecular Genetic Studies on Common Carp (Cyprinus Carpio)

Pages : 216
Book Description
Common carp (Cyprinus carpio. L) is the world s oldest domesticated and arguably most important aquaculture species. The overall objective of this thesis is to advance the understanding of the genetics of common carp and with a special focus on little studied Vietnamese domesticated and wild populations. The first part of the study demonstrated that direct sequencing of variable mtDNA gene fragments has the potential to provide useful insights into the genetic diversity, origin, divergence and genealogy of carp populations. The second part using mtDNA sequences, examines taxonomic questions and evolutionary hypotheses focussing on samples originating from wild population from across Eurasia. The third and fourth parts of the thesis present an examination of genetic diversity in introduced and indigenous domesticated stocks and wild populations of common carp from throughout Vietnam using DNA direct sequencing, SSCP analysis of the mt DNA control region and microsatellite markers. The last part of the thesis presents a phylogenetic study of the taxonomic classification and relationship within subfamilies of the family Cyprinidae.
