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

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

High gene flow is considered the norm for most marine organisms and is expected to limit
their ability to adapt to local environments. Few studies have directly compared the patterns …

The spatial structuring of intraspecific genetic diversity is the result of random genetic drift,
natural selection, migration, mutation, and their interaction with historical processes. The …

The existence of biologically differentiated populations has been credited with a major role
in conferring sustainability and in buffering overall productivity of anadromous fish …

An international multi-laboratory project was conducted to develop a standardized DNA
database for Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). This project was in response to …

The marine environment is characterized by few physical barries, and pelagic fishes
commonly show high migratory potential and low, albeit in some cases statistically …

Geometric morphometric methods (GMMs) were used to determine if scale morphology can
discriminate between genera, species, geographic variants, and stocks of mullet …

Detecting and estimating the degree of genetic differentiation among populations of highly
mobile marine fish having pelagic larval stages is challenging because their effective …
