DESCRIPTION:Genetic variation underlies key ecological processes and econom
 ic activities\, and is thus a collective resource for sustaining future sp
 ecies\, ecosystems and human society. As biodiversity loss accelerates and
  environmental challenges mount\, there is need for quantitative evaluatio
 n of the status and trends of genetic biodiversity. However\, appropriate 
 mathematical tools for this evaluation are lacking. Despite major recent a
 dvances in obtaining genetic data\, current genetic metrics are piecemeal\
 , may be incomparable across studies and data types\, and are often collec
 ted and presented in an ad hoc manner.
