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

Over the past few years, technological advances have facilitated giant leaps forward in our
ability to generate genome-wide molecular data, offering exciting opportunities for gaining …

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 …

One of the most challenging problems in evolutionary biology is linking the evolution of the
phenotype with the underlying genotype, because most phenotypes are encoded by many …

A key question in many genetic studies on marine organisms is how to interpret a low but
statistically significant level of genetic differentiation. Do such observations reflect a real …

An essential prerequisite of a sustainable fisheries management is the matching of
biologically relevant processes and management action. In fisheries management and …

In times of overfishing and climate change, marine resources are extremely vulnerable, and
the vast majority of the world's fish stocks have already collapsed. In this fragile context, the …

Challenging long‐held perceptions of fish management units can help to protect vulnerable
stocks. When a fishery consisting of multiple genetic stocks is managed as a single unit …

Harvesting of marine resources raises concerns about how to identify and preserve
biocomplexity, including the diversity of life histories found within and among wild …

The mode and extent of rapid evolution and genomic change in response to human
harvesting are key conservation issues. Although experiments and models have shown a …
