Abstract Theory predicts that genetic diversity and genetic differentiation may strongly vary
among populations of the same species depending on population turnover and local …

Determining the timing, extent and underlying causes of interspecific gene exchange during
or following speciation is central to understanding species' evolution. Antarctic notothenioid …

Parasite‐mediated selection varying across time and space in metapopulations is expected
to result in host local adaptation and the maintenance of genetic diversity in disease‐related …

Aim The species of the genus Chionodraco (Notothenioidei) are the most abundant icefish
on the continental shelf of the Weddell Sea. While previous studies indicated that only …

Founder effects introduce stochasticity in the genetic structure of species at the regional
scale. To the extent that founder effects are important, they will result in a reduced signature …

Aim Pleuragramma antarctica is an Antarctic notothenioid fish with a pelagic life‐cycle. It
plays a major trophic role in coastal Antarctic waters as a predator of krill and as prey for …

Seabirds are of considerable conservation significance due to their key role in ecosystems
and their generally high level of threat, especially from invasive species in breeding sites …

Background Loss of genetic variability due to environmental changes, limitation of gene flow
between pools of individuals or putative selective pressure at specific markers, were …

ABSTRACT The Neotropical catfish species Ageneiosus pardalis, Pimelodus grosskopfii,
and Sorubim cuspicaudus are important fishery resources in Colombia that show historical …

The identification of loci under selection (outliers) is a major challenge in evolutionary
biology, being critical to comprehend evolutionary processes leading to population …
