Background Comparative phylogeography enables the study of historical and evolutionary
processes that have contributed to shaping patterns of contemporary genetic diversity …

Characterizing patterns of genetic connectivity in marine species is of critical importance
given the anthropogenic pressures placed on the marine environment. For sessile species …

In this study, the genetic diversity of Donax vittatus across the Iberian Peninsula was
investigated using four mitochondrial (COI, Cytb, 16S F and M types) and three nuclear (H3 …

Population genetic connectivity is influenced by multiple abiotic and biotic attributes,
including geography, dispersal ability, and life history, which may lead to different patterns of …

In this review (third part), several species within the Nassarius pauperus complex from the
eastern Indian Ocean and western Pacific are treated, including a revised concept of Nassa …

Because marine species respond differentially to factors governing survival and gene flow,
closely related taxa may display dissimilar phylogeographic histories. New data for the …

Phylogeographic patterns of the SW Atlantic estuarine crab Neohelice granulata were
examined using mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I sequences and analyzed together …

Unravelling the interactions between life-history strategies and oceanography is central to
our understanding of gene flow and connectivity in the marine environment. In the present …

We explore the phylogeography of the broadcast spawner Marthasterias glacialis along
south Europe and Azores. Sequences of the cytochrome c oxidase gene from 225 …

Dispersal and connectivity of patellid limpets (Patella spp.) in the eastern North Atlantic have
been examined by addressing reproductive biology, larval development, population …
