Being trained as a forensic geneticist does not limit one to forensic science but instead provides the skills necessary to work in the fields of genomics, molecular ecology, conservation genetics, natural resource management, and evolutionary biology, whether in public institutions or private laboratories.
Typically, the models of virulence management are evolutionary.
This helps to obviate the need for ongoing intervention and management, ensuring evolutionary resilient populations.
Other examples of pest adaptation to management include evolutionary shifts in a range of life history features.
Compared to invader-free communities, invader-perturbed communities are more likely to require monitoring and management of evolutionary processes.
Secondarily, relying partly on the same tools and theory is likely to bring traditional fisheries management and evolutionary biologists closer to each other and generate interdisciplinary discussion.
These introductions pose a global experiment in species interactions as well as an opportunity and a challenge for management and evolutionary theory to inform each other.
The bottom line is that this preliminary analysis clearly shows that even so-called "negative" species interactions need to be carefully examined from a management and evolutionary standpoint.
A recent review proposed that the distribution of cryptic species is non-random across taxonomic groups and biomes, which might have substantial consequences for biodiversity assessments, macroecology, biogeography, conservation management and evolutionary theory [ 1].
For food, Thrall et al. (2011) lead off with a synthesis of directions and constraints for the evolutionary management of agro-ecosystems. 1 They focus on pest and pathogen management as exemplars for integration of agronomic, ecological, and evolutionary thinking.
