Microsatellite and allozyme analyses reveal few genetic differences among spatially distinct aggregations of geoduck clams (Panopea abrupta, Conrad 1849)
(2004-12)
The genetic population structure of geoduck clams (Panopea abrupta) in inland waters of
Washington may affect fishery management and aquacultural practices involving this species. To
investigate genetic differentiation ...
Mixed evidence for reduced local adaptation in wild salmon resulting from interbreeding with escaped farmed salmon: complexities in hybrid fitness
(2008-08)
Interbreeding between artificially-selected and wild organisms can have negative fitness
consequences for the latter. In the Northwest Atlantic, farmed Atlantic salmon recurrently escape
into the wild and enter rivers ...
Genomic islands of divergence and their consequences for the resolution of spatial structure in an exploited marine fish
(2013-04)
As populations diverge, genomic regions associated with adaptation display elevated differentiation. These genomic islands of adaptive divergence can inform conservation efforts in exploited species, by refining the ...
Genomic islands of divergence and their consequences for the resolution of spatial structure in an exploited marine fish
(2013-04)
As populations diverge, genomic regions associated with adaptation display elevated
differentiation. These genomic islands of adaptive divergence can inform conservation efforts in
exploited species, by refining the ...
Both Geography and Ecology Contribute to Mating Isolation in Guppies
(2010-12)
Local adaptation to different environments can promote mating isolation - either as an
incidental by-product of trait divergence, or as a result of selection to avoid maladaptive mating.
Numerous recent empirical examples ...
Mixed evidence for reduced local adaptation in wild salmon resulting from interbreeding with escaped farmed salmon: complexities in hybrid fitness
(2008-08)
Interbreeding between artificially-selected and wild organisms can have negative fitness
consequences for the latter. In the Northwest Atlantic, farmed Atlantic salmon recurrently escape
into the wild and enter rivers where ...
Non-linear genetic isolation by distance: implications for dispersal estimation in anadromous and marine fish populations
(2007)
Indirect genetic approaches such as those based on the association between genetic and
geographic distance (isolation by distance, IBD) may provide one of the best means of estimating
dispersal in marine systems. We ...
Contemporary nuclear and mitochondrial genetic clines in a north temperate estuarine fish reflect Pleistocene vicariance
(2011)
Contemporary genetic spatial structure in north temperate marine species is likely the
culmination of multiple vicariant and dispersive cycles. Here we evaluate spatial genetic structure
in an estuarine fish, rainbow ...
Otolith elemental composition and adult tagging reveal spawning site fidelity and estuarine dependency in rainbow smelt
(2008)
Observations of homing and straying in marine organisms based on traditional Eulerian approaches
may fail to resolve dispersal kernels or be unable to differentiate homing from invariant local
residency, The roles of ...
