Coral reefs are both exceptionally biodiverse and threatened by climate change and other
human activities. Here, we review population genomic processes in coral reef taxa and their …

Hybridisation was traditionally considered rare on coral reefs. However, a rapid increase in
hybrid studies over the last 20 years has revealed that hybridisation on coral reefs is …

The family Pomacentridae is a species-rich group of primarily marine fishes. The
phylogenetic relationships of the damselfishes are examined herein using sequence data …

The study of genetic exchange resulting from natural hybridization, horizontal gene transfer,
and viral recombination has long been marked by controversy between researchers holding …

Species identification based on the DNA sequence of a fragment of the cytochrome c
oxidase subunit I gene in the mitochondrial genome, DNA barcoding, is widely applied to …

Hybridisation has traditionally been considered rare and unimportant in generating
biodiversity in the marine environment, particularly in coral reefs ecosystems. Here we …

Natural hybridisation is a widespread phenomenon, particularly well documented in
terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems, where it has been ascribed substantial evolutionary …

Species introductions promote secondary contacts between taxa with long histories of
allopatric divergence. Anthropogenic contact zones thus offer valuable contrasts to …

Hybridization events are not uncommon in marine environments where physical barriers are
attenuated. Studies of coral reef taxa have suggested that hybridization predominantly …

The lionfish is an iconic marine fish, and recently renowned for a disastrous introduction into
the West Atlantic. Genetic surveys of the putative invaders (Pterois volitans and Pterois …
