Wilcox suggested use of a new term <i>conservation biology</i>, complementing Frankel's conception and coining of "conservation genetics", to encompass the application of biological sciences in general to conservation. Subsequently, Soulé and Wilcox wrote conceived the agenda for the meeting they jointly convened on September 6–9, 1978, titled <i>First International Conference on Resesarch in Conservation Biology</i>, in which the program described "The purpose of this conference is to accelerate and facilitate the development of a rigorous new discipline called conservation biology — a multidisciplinary field drawing its insights and methodology mostly from population ecology, community ecology, sociobiology, population genetics, and reproductive biology." This inclusion of topics at the meeting related to animal breeding reflected participation and support of the zoo and captive breeding communities.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-10"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-10">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFKareivaMarvier2012" class="citation journal cs1">Kareiva, Peter; Marvier, Michelle (November 2012). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1525/bio.2012.62.11.5">"What Is Conservation Science?"</a>. <i>BioScience</i>. <b>62</b> (11): 962–969. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1525%2Fbio.2012.62.11.5">10.1525/bio.2012.62.11.5</a>. <a href="/wiki/ISSN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISSN (identifier)">ISSN</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://search.worldcat.org/issn/1525-3244">1525-3244</a>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=BioScience&amp;rft.atitle=What+Is+Conservation+Science%3F&amp;rft.volume=62&amp;rft.issue=11&amp;rft.pages=962-969&amp;rft.date=2012-11&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1525%2Fbio.2012.62.11.5&amp;rft.issn=1525-3244&amp;rft.aulast=Kareiva&amp;rft.aufirst=Peter&amp;rft.au=Marvier%2C+Michelle&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fdoi.org%2F10.1525%2Fbio.2012.62.11.5&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AConservation+biology" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Cooke_et_al_2013-11"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Cooke_et_al_2013_11-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Cooke_et_al_2013_11-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFCookeSackFranklinFarrell2013" class="citation journal cs1">Cooke, S.
