A genetic study estimating Ne in five populations, for example, might take one to three years from planning to DNA analysis and cost 10 to 30K USD for supplies and 50-200K for personnel. Staff must also have technical training in molecular techniques, population genetics, and bioinformatics. Because of this, most countries still lack population genetic data for most species.
