Understanding the population structure and patterns of gene flow within species is of
fundamental importance to the study of evolution. In the fields of population and evolutionary …

HIV recombinants increase worldwide and invade geographical regions where pure
subtypes were previously predominant. This trend is expected to continue in the future, as …

Population differentiation is a fundamental process of evolution, and many evolutionary
studies, such as population genetics, phylogeography and conservation biology, all require …

Measuring the magnitude of differentiation between populations based on genetic markers
is commonplace in ecology, evolution, and conservation biology. The predominant …

Our understanding of the genetic connectivity of manta ray populations and the drivers that
shape genetic population structure is still limited. This information is crucial to identify the …

Background In the last four decades, the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, vector of
several human arboviruses, has spread from its native range in South-East Asia to all over …

Demand for lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) has increased exponentially over the last
decade, both for their roe, which is used as a caviar substitute, and increasingly also as …

Aim Effective conservation of the endangered tiger depends upon reliable knowledge of
factors driving genetic differentiation and population connectivity. Connectivity models …

Genomic methodologies offer unprecedented opportunities for statistically robust studies of
species broadly distributed in environments conducive to high gene flow, providing valuable …

Vagile, large-bodied marine organisms frequently have wide range dispersion but also
dependence on coastal habitats for part of their life history. These characteristics may induce …
