Abstract:
:Advances in sequencing technologies have revolutionized wildlife conservation genetics. Analysis of genomic data sets can provide high-resolution estimates of genetic structure, genetic diversity, gene flow, and evolutionary history. These data can be used to characterize conservation units and to effectively manage the genetic health of species in a broad evolutionary context. Here we utilize thousands of genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and mitochondrial DNA to provide the first genetic assessment of the Australian red-tailed black-cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii), a widespread bird species comprising populations of varying conservation concern. We identified five evolutionarily significant units, which are estimated to have diverged during the Pleistocene. These units are only partially congruent with the existing morphology-based subspecies taxonomy. Genetic clusters inferred from mitochondrial DNA differed from those based on SNPs and were less resolved. Our study has a range of conservation and taxonomic implications for this species. In particular, we provide advice on the potential genetic rescue of the Endangered and restricted-range subspecies C. b. graptogyne, and propose that the western C. b. samueli population is diagnosable as a separate subspecies. The results of our study highlight the utility of considering the phylogeographic relationships inferred from genome-wide SNPs when characterizing conservation units and management priorities, which is particularly relevant as genomic data sets become increasingly accessible.
