Marine turtles migrate across long distances, exhibit complex life histories, and occupy
habitats that are difficult to observe. These factors present substantial challenges to …

In the South Atlantic Ocean, few data exist regarding the dispersal of young oceanic sea
turtles. We characterized the movements of laboratory-reared yearling loggerhead turtles …

In highly mobile philopatric species, defining the scale of natal homing is fundamental to
characterizing population dynamics and effectively managing distinct populations. Genetic …

The green turtle (Chelonia mydas) foraging aggregation along the Texas coast has
increased dramatically in recent years, but the source populations for these turtles have not …

The Mediterranean green turtle regional management unit is one of the 17 management
units of green turtles considered a global conservation priority. However, previous studies …

Heteroplasmy is the existence of more than one mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variant within a
cell. The evolutionary mechanisms of heteroplasmy are not fully understood, despite being a …

Understanding the connectivity among populations is a key research priority for species of
conservation concern. Genetic tools are widely used for this purpose, but the results can be …

Ex situ management is an important conservation tool that allows the preservation of
biological diversity outside natural habitats while supporting survival in the wild. Captive …

Population structure and spatial distribution are fundamentally important fields within
ecology, evolution, and conservation biology. To investigate pan‐Atlantic connectivity of …

Marine turtles are highly migratory species that establish multiple connections among distant
areas, through oceanic migration corridors. To improve the knowledge on the connectivity of …
