Genetic rescue from protected areas is modulated by migration, hunting rate, and timing of harvest

Genetic rescue from protected areas is modulated by migration, hunting rate, and timing of harvest

Abstract In terrestrial and marine ecosystems, migrants from protected areas may buffer the risk of harvest‐induced evolutionary changes in exploited populations that face strong selective harvest pressures. Understanding the mechanisms favoring genetic rescue through migration could help ensure evo...
