Evolution is change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. These characteristics are the expressions of genes that are passed on from parent to offspring during reproduction. Different characteristics tend to exist within any given population as a result of mutation, genetic recombination and other sources of genetic variation. Evolution occurs when evolutionary processes such as natural selection and genetic drift act on this variation, resulting Evolutionarily Significant Units, Distinct Population Segments, and the Endangered Species Act: Reply to Pennock and Dimmick.

Show more Evolutionarily Significant Units (ESU) are defined by NOAA Fisheries under their Endangered Species Act (ESA) status reviews. They are defined as a population that is substantially reproductively isolated from cospecific populations and represents an important component in the evolutionary legacy of the species.

ROHDE Mitochondrial and nuclear gene variation is described from populations repre-senting the range of two species of rare pygmy sunfishes, Elassoma boehlkei and Elassoma okatie, in the Carolinas.

Thus, the term `significant' in ESU should be seen as a recognition that the set of populations has been historically isolated and, accordingly, is likely to have a distinct potential. What Really is an Evolutionarily Significant Unit? The debate over integrating genetics and ecology in conservation biology The definition of Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU) that has been adopted by NMFS provides the specific criteria of reproductive isolation and evolutionary significance for describing ESU boundaries (Waples 1991, 56 FR 58612).

Evolutionarily significant unit

Whether or not trout and steelhead populations, which are the two adult life histories of O. mykiss, are in the same Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU) - SOTSP. An evolutionarily significant unit, or ESU, of Pacific salmon is considered to be a "distinct population segment" and thus a "species" under the Endangered Species Act. Chinook salmon, Chum salmon, Coho salmon, Pink salmon, Sockeye salmon, and steelhead are all included in the dataset. individual population viability to the viability of the Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU) as whole. The document is based primarily on a review and synthesis of the conservation biology and salmonid literature.

69 Fed. Reg. at 31355. Part One sets the theme of the book by focusing on the Evolutionarily Significant Unit (ESU), a concept introduced by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in 1991 for identification of distinct population segments in Pacific salmon.
