Combined with information on geographic distribution and the severity of anthropogenic pressures, consideration of life history strategies reveal important implications for conservation of reptile species.
Nonclinical (silent) infections in farmed bullfrogs suggest that this species may act as a carrier of chytridiomycosis, which has serious implications for conservation of biodiversity.
These are questions I cannot yet answer; I need to understand the history of Akagera better, the perspectives of the people who live around Akagera, how the park is managed, and the implications of fortress conservation in the Rwandan context.
The functional implications of this conservation among sim alleles warrant further investigation.
Therefore, identifying the mechanism and implications of the conservation of specific spacer lengths and sequences is of prime importance for various genetic engineering techniques.
The functional implications of the conservation or frequency of SSRs, if there are any, also unfortunately must remain unclear at this stage.
Consequently, the implications of sequence conservation in a less well-studied lineage are often unpredictable and require further lineage-specific investigation.
Aside from the evolutionary and functional implications of the conservation of LSECtin function, the close similarities in their ligand-binding properties, as well as the similar restricted distribution of tissues in which they are expressed, provide a firm foundation for use of mouse LSECtin as a model for the human receptor, which is not always possible in the case of more divergent receptors.
The question of local adaptation between plants and their soil biota has important implications for conservation of biodiversity and may justify the use of seed material from local provenances in restoration campaigns.
For further details, an extensive review of the theory, prevalence, and evolutionary significance of CnGV and CoGV across all organisms, with implications for conservation of resource species, is provided by Conover et al. (2009a).
