Humans are changing and challenging nature in many ways. Conservation Biology seeks to limit human impacts on nature and preserve biological diversity. Traditionally, Developmental Biology and Conservation Biology have had nonoverlapping objectives, operating in distinct spheres of biological science. However, this chasm can and should be filled to help combat the emerging challenges of the 21st century. The means by which to accomplish this goal were already established within the conceptual framework of evo- and eco-devo and can be further expanded to address the ways that anthropogenic disturbance affect embryonic development. Herein, I describe ways that these approaches can be used to advance the study of reptilian embryos. More specifically, I explore the ways that a developmental perspective can advance ongoing studies of embryonic physiology in the context of global warming and chemical pollution, both of which are known stressors of reptilian embryos. I emphasize ways that these developmental perspectives can inform conservation biologists trying to develop management practices that will address the complexity of challenges facing reptilian embryos.

人为变化时代的综合发育生物学

人类正在以多种方式改变和挑战自然。保护生物学旨在限制人类对自然的影响并保护生物多样性。传统上,发育生物学和保护生物学有不重叠的目标,在不同的生物科学领域运作。然而,这个鸿沟可以而且应该被填补,以帮助应对 21 世纪新出现的挑战。实现这一目标的方法已经在进化和生态进化的概念框架内建立起来,并且可以进一步扩展以解决人为干扰影响胚胎发育的方式。在这里,我描述了这些方法可用于推进爬行动物胚胎研究的方法。进一步来说,我探索了在全球变暖和化学污染的背景下,发展视角可以推动正在进行的胚胎生理学研究的方式,这两者都是爬行动物胚胎的已知压力源。我强调这些发展观点可以为保护生物学家提供信息,这些保护生物学家试图制定管理实践,以解决爬行动物胚胎面临的挑战的复杂性。
