They carefully distinguished synteny, which they were basing on conservation of function, from conserved segments, based on conservation of sequence.
Overall, schemes tend to be designed to guide conservation organizations in their own priority setting or they categorize species based on conservation status.
Both datasets were based on conservation in mammals.
We also derived a novel measure of mammal conservation importance for each site based on a "Mammalian Conservation Priority index" (MPi) which incorporates information on species richness, population abundance, body size distribution, conservation status, and forest patch area.
Potential functional SNPs [those that were located in coding regions or were evolutionarily conserved based on the conservation track of the UCSC Genome Browser University of Californiaa, Santa Cruz; http://genome.ucsc.edu) were also given priority.
Clearly, financial resources of state government institutions directed toward wildlife conservation, though far below estimates of levels needed to preserve biodiversity [22], are being spent based on species priorities developed by state agencies.
Develop analytical capabilities based on business priorities.
We now move on to the construction of four scenarios that are based on different policy priorities related to nature conservation (Figure3).
The first method (Simple Conservation or SC) is based on sequence conservation.
Hence, undertaking soil conservation measures based on the given priority is desirable.
