Newly established populations are susceptible to founder events that reduce genetic
variation. This may be counterbalanced by gene flow after populations become established …

The artificial movement of individuals between populations (translocation) can be an
effective way to increase genetic diversity within populations, but few studies have …

Populations of the littorine gastropod Bembicium vittatum in 47 isolated tidal ponds were
used to test effects of isolation and habitat on genetic divergence. The mean G ST at 13 …

The distribution of neutral genetic variability within and among sets of populations results
from the combined actions of genetic drift, migration, extinction and recolonization …

Assisted colonisation, the introduction of species beyond their historical range, is
increasingly necessary for conserving species. However, empirical evidence of the long …

The littorine genus Bembicium, restricted to Australia and Lord Howe and Norfolk Islands,
provides special opportunities to examine the effects of contrasting modes of development …

The littorine gastropod Bembicium vittatum has direct development from benthic egg
masses, and shows high levels of genetic subdivision in the Houtman Abrolhos Islands …

The littorine snail Bembicium vittatum has direct development and associated high levels of
genetic subdivision. In the Houtman Abrolhos Islands, Western Australia, this species …

Colonization events like range expansion or biological invasions can be associated with
population bottlenecks. Small population size may lead to loss of genetic diversity due to …

Aim As within‐species genomic data have been shown useful in interpreting broader
biogeographic trends, we analysed the mode of population genomic isolation involved in a …
