Long-term population size of the North Atlantic humpback whale within the context of worldwide population structure

Creator:

Ruegg, Kristen, Rosenbaum, Howard C., Anderson, Eric C., Engel, Marcia, Rothschild, Anna, Baker, C. Scott, and Palumbi, Stephen R.

Abstract:

Once hunted to the brink of extinction, humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in the North Atlantic have recently been increasing in numbers. However, uncertain information on past abundance makes it difficult to assess the extent of the recovery in this species. While estimates of pre-exploitation abundance based upon catch data suggest...

Circumpolar Diversity and Geographic Differentiation of mtDNA in the Critically Endangered Antarctic Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia)

Creator:

Sremba, Angela L., Hancock-Hanser, Brittany, Branch, Trevor A., LeDuc, Rick L., and Baker, C. Scott

Abstract:

The Antarctic blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia) was hunted to near extinction between 1904 and 1972, declining from an estimated initial abundance of more than 250,000 to fewer than 400. Here, we describe mtDNA control region diversity and geographic differentiation in the surviving population of the Antarctic blue whale, using...

Low Diversity in theMitogenome of Sperm Whales Revealed by Next-Generation Sequencing

Creator:

Alexander, Alana, Steel, Debbie, Slikas, Beth, Hoekzema, Kendra, Carraher, Colm, Parks, Matthew, Cronn, Richard, and Baker, C. Scott

Abstract:

Large population sizes and global distributions generally associate with high mitochondrial DNA control region (CR) diversity. The sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) is an exception, showing low CR diversity relative to other cetaceans; however, diversity levels throughout the remainder of the sperm whale mitogenome are unknown. We sequenced 20 mitogenomes from...
