1. bioGENESIS highlighted points from the annual report Dan Faith, Tet Yahara

2. Overview of activities Lohmann, Hendry lead bioGENESIS symposium at the annual conference of the Association of Tropical Biodiversity Conservation (ATBC) and Donoghue plenary lecture “Reconnecting ecology and evolution to cope with global change” A. Hendry participated in Applied Evolution Summit, Aus. “From microbial to conservation biology: exploring phylogenetic beta diversity as a theoretical tool uniting disciplines”, at 95th ESA meeting, Pittsburgh (Faith+) 3-days training workshop on "Phylogenetics and population genetics“ (Crandall+) Tet Yahara various meetings and workshops in Japan Numerous other talks and workshops – see report See report for list of papers, including those in COSUST.

3. An example of AP-BON activities linked with bioGENESIS Networking Asian forest plots Pilot study in Cambodian plots Many 1 ha plots Determine DNA sequences for all tree species SD(Species diversity) PD (Phylogenetic diversity) FD (Functional trait diversity) Legumes SD/PD/FD assessments Time-series records of loss Species lost Global legume assessments

4. I phylogeny and functional diversity track loss in functional diversity, look at resilience, do trade-offs

6. Can value-add to sampled red list index Genetic diversity proportional to range(log(range)) Can value add to 2 Can value add to Understanding processes, to measure biodiversity -

7. Using the biodiversity measures to look at decision- making processes in the human-environment system

8. Extra slides

9. Loss of the world’s corals GBIF, OBIS, and other distribution data suggest that if we could conserve corals, even in just one well-targeted part of the coral triangle, we could avoid worst case of PD losses Entire clades (existing families and genera) fall into IUCN threatened classes Apply phylogenetic risk analysis to a “supertree” for corals Faith et al. 2010

10. House dust communities
