Recent improvements in the speed, cost and accuracy of next generation sequencing are
revolutionizing the discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). SNPs are …

By providing new approaches to the investigation of demographic and evolutionary
dynamics of wild populations, molecular genetics has led to fundamental changes in our …

How genomic selection enables species to adapt to divergent environments is a
fundamental question in ecology and evolution. We investigated the genomic signatures of …

Studies of adaptive evolution have experienced a recent revival in population genetics of
natural populations and there is currently much focus on identifying genomic signatures of …

High gene flow is considered the norm for most marine organisms and is expected to limit
their ability to adapt to local environments. Few studies have directly compared the patterns …

Despite the enormous economic and ecological importance of marine organisms, the spatial
scales of adaptation and biocomplexity remain largely unknown. Yet, the preservation of …

Shallow population structure is generally reported for most marine fish and explained as a
consequence of high dispersal, connectivity and large population size. Targeted gene …

Abstract Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated fishing has had a major role in the
overexploitation of global fish populations. In response, international regulations have been …

Background Marine fishes have been shown to display low levels of genetic structuring and
associated high levels of gene flow, suggesting shallow evolutionary trajectories and …

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have gained wide use in humans and model
species and are becoming the marker of choice for applications in other species …
