Questions and Answers

What is one of the weaknesses of common practice in landscape genetic analysis?

  • Overemphasis on statistical model quality without considering management implementation
  • Failure to match the study area extent with conservation management units and species' dispersal potential (correct)
  • Neglecting the inclusion of variables useful for management implementation in statistical models
  • Lack of focus on identifying thresholds for landscape effects on gene flow

    • What is recommended to further improve the applicability of landscape genetic studies?

  • Expanding the study area extent without considering dispersal potential
  • Focusing solely on the quality of statistical models
  • Identifying thresholds for landscape effects on gene flow (correct)
  • Increasing the complexity of statistical models to include more variables

    • What should be optimised in landscape genetic studies to enhance the quality of statistical models?

  • The extent of the study area
  • The number of conservation management units included
  • The complexity of variables included in the models
  • The quality of the underlying statistical models (correct)
