Hello Aspirant,

Hope you are doing good.

The main distinction between genetic diversity and species diversity is that genetic diversity refers to variances in DNA across individuals of the same species, whereas species diversity refers to the number of species in a given area. The variety of ecosystems in a given area is referred to as ecological diversity.

Species diversity refers to the huge number of different species in a given area, whereas genetic diversity refers to the diversity of genes within a species.

Species diversity refers to the number and distribution of species in a given area, whereas genetic diversity refers to the number of genes in a given population.

Species diversity is a trait of the community, whereas genetic diversity is a trait of the species.

Species diversity improves biotic interactions and community stability, whereas genetic diversity promotes a species' adaptation and dispersal in a variety of habitats.

In a nutshell, there are two sorts of biodiversity: genetic diversity and species diversity. The variation of genes within a species is referred to as genetic diversity. Species diversity refers to the variety of species found in a given area. The type of variation in each category of diversity is the major difference between genetic diversity and species diversity.

Hope this information helps you.

All the best.
