Conservation of Declining Populations

Conservation of Declining Populations

Conservation of declining population focuses on ways of detecting, diagnosing, and halting a population decline. The approach uses methods to prevent populations from going extinct.

Threats to Biodiversity

Threats to Biodiversity

There have been five major extinction events throughout geological history, resulting in the elimination of biodiversity, followed by a rebound of species that adapted to the new conditions. In the current geological epoch, the Holocene, there is a sixth extinction event in progress. This mass extinction has been attributed to human activities and is thus provisionally called the Anthropocene. In 2019 the human population reached 7.7 billion people and is projected to comprise 10 billion by...

Genetic Screens

Genetic Screens

Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which result in visible changes...

Genetics of Speciation

Genetics of Speciation

Speciation is the evolutionary process resulting in the formation of new, distinct species—groups of reproductively isolated populations.The genetics of speciation involves the different traits or isolating mechanisms preventing gene exchange, leading to reproductive isolation. Reproductive isolation can be due to reproductive barriers that have effects either before or after the formation of a zygote. Pre-zygotic mechanisms prevent fertilization from occurring, and post-zygotic mechanisms...

Genetic Drift

Genetic Drift

Natural selection—probably the most well-known evolutionary mechanism—increases the prevalence of traits that enhance survival and reproduction. However, evolution does not merely propagate favorable traits, nor does it always benefit populations.Life is not fair. A deer grazing contentedly in a field can have her meal cut tragically short by a bolt of lightning. If the doomed doe is one of only three in the population, 1/3 of the population’s gene pool is lost. Random events like this can...

Summary

This summary is machine-generated.

This article examines contemporary Australian policies through the lens of genocide, arguing that cultural destruction constitutes genocide. It highlights ongoing genocidal relations within reconciliation and native title processes.

Area of Science:

Socio-legal studies
Indigenous studies
Genocide studies

Background:

Traditional discourse on Australian genocide focuses on historical frontier violence and child removal.
This article expands the definition to include contemporary culturally destructive policies.

Observation:

The concept of cultural genocide is analyzed, drawing on Raphael Lemkin's work.
It challenges the distinction between genocide and cultural 'diffusion' or 'ethnocide', asserting cultural genocide as a direct method of genocide.

Findings:

Genocide is argued to be an ongoing process in Australia due to its failure to decolonize.
Contemporary genocidal relations are identified in the official reconciliation process, native title legislation, and Northern Territory interventions.

Implications:

Re-evaluating Australian policies through the framework of genocide is crucial for understanding ongoing colonial impacts.
This perspective calls for a deeper examination of systemic issues affecting Indigenous Australians.
