As direct management interventions are becoming more common in conservation, the need to have genetic data to inform such actions is increasing. This practical workshop is aimed at conservation biologists who have, or are seeking to have, genetic data to inform their translocations. We will walk you through the genetic terms, what they mean, what you need to watch out for and how to interpret commonly used genetic metrics.
