ABSTRACT Blue whale locations in the Southern Hemisphere and northern Indian Ocean were obtained from catches (303 239), sightings (4383 records of ≥8058 whales), strandings (103), Discovery marks (2191) recoveries (95), acoustic recordings. Sighting surveys included 7 480 450 km effort plus 14 676 days with unmeasured effort. Groups usually consisted solitary whales (65.2%) or pairs (24.6%); larger feeding aggregations unassociated individuals only rarely observed. rates (groups per 1000...
Hybrid zones are fascinating systems to investigate the structure of genetic barriers. Marine hybrid deserve more investigation because generally high dispersion potential planktonic larvae which allows migration on scales unrivalled by terrestrial species. Here we analyse mosaic zone between marine mussels Mytilus edulis and M. galloprovincialis, using three length-polymorphic PCR loci as neutral diagnostic markers 32 samples along Atlantic coast Europe. Instead a single gradient from...

Abstract Geographical barriers and sea-level fluctuations have significantly influenced the population genetic structure evolutionary history of Indo-West Pacific (IWP) reef species. This study examines these effects in Abudefduf septemfasciatus (banded sergeant), a widely distributed egg-brooding IWP damselfish. Using 4700 genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms obtained from double-digest restriction site-associated DNA sequencing 1638-bp mitochondrial gene fragment 106 samples across...
Previous surveys of population structure in the Atlantic-Mediterranean anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus L. have reported heterogeneity morphology, allozyme frequencies, and mitochondrial DNA haplotype frequencies at a regional scale. In particular, two stocks been detected Adriatic Sea. this paper, available data is reviewed with aim to relate genetic variation geography widest possible geographical scale, for investigating evolutionary mechanisms underlying stock anchovy.

Abstract Allozyme surveys of genetic variation in Mytilus galloprovincialis Lamarck throughout the world have identified three groups within this species: a northeastern (NE) Atlantic group that also includes M. population South Africa, Mediterranean populations from eastern and western coasts North Pacific, an Australasian group. Hypotheses been proposed to account for differentiation patterns disjunct, worldwide distribution include recent introduction species into southern hemisphere...
Abstract Unequal differentiation between two types of loci (allozyme and DNA markers) across a Mytilus hybrid zone has recently been claimed as evidence for direct selection on some allozyme loci. We provide here counter‐example: noncoding locus that exhibits much the incriminated allozymes do. The levels genetic varied widely among both markers no clear difference emerged markers. This suggests strong interlocus variance in confounded with discrepancy marker result an insufficient...
DNA barcoding opens new perspectives on the way we document biodiversity. Initially proposed to circumvent limits of morphological characters assign unknown individuals known species, has been used in a wide array studies where collecting species identity constitutes crucial step. The assignment unknowns knowns assumes that are already well identified and delineated, making performed reliable. Here, DNA-based delimitation specimen methods iteratively tackle inventory Indo-Australian...

Abstract The blue shark Prionace glauca is a top predator with one of the widest geographical distributions any species. It classified as Critically Endangered in Mediterranean Sea, and Near Threatened globally. Previous genetic studies did not reject null hypothesis single global population. was proposed possible archetype “grey zone population differentiation,” coined to designate cases where structure may be too recent or faint detected using limited set markers. Here, samples collected...
