Estimated six per cent loss of genetic variation in wild populations since the industrial revolution
Abstract Genetic variation is fundamental to population fitness and adaptation to environmental change. Human activities are driving declines in many wild populations and could have similar effects on genetic variation. Despite the importance of estimating such declines, no global estimate of the ma...
