A Study on the Genetic Diversity as a Buffer in respect of Biodiversity

  • Mahendra Singh

Abstract

The variety of life on Earth, comprising millions of plants, animals, microorganisms and the genes they carry, refers to biodiversity or biological diversity. It simply means the presence of the natural habitats of a wide range of plant and animal species or the diversity of plant and animal life in a given habitat. Biodiversity has a large number of values and is typically represented at three stages genetic diversity, diversity of the organisms, diversity of the environment.An ecosystem is a group of life forms (biotic components) that interact with one another and their environment's non-living elements (abiotic components).Nearly every ecosystem retains its own environmental insurance.Biodiversity has a large number of values and is typically represented at three stages genetic diversity, diversity of the organisms, diversity of the environment.An ecosystem is a group of life forms (biotic components) that interact with one another and their environment's non-living elements (abiotic components). An ecosystem requires three kinds of diversity to sustain this system: biological, genetic and functional. Biological diversity refers to the species' richness in a specific area; genetic diversity refers to a specific species' way of adapting to changing conditions, while functional diversity is equal to the biophysical processes that take place in the area. One of genetic diversity's most noticeable impacts is that it serves as a genetic diversity’s buffer against environmental variability, particularly in the medium and long terms.
