Aim: The ecological effects of biological invasions are well documented, but little
is known about the effects of invaders on the genetic structure of native
species. We examined the phylogeography, genetic variation and population
structuring of two galaxiid fishes, Aplochiton zebra and A. taeniatus, threatened
by non-native salmonids, and whose...

Genetic signatures of historical dispersal of fish
Understanding genetic differentiation and speciation processes in marine species with high
dispersal capabilities is challenging. The Chilean dolphin, Cephalorhynchus eutropia, is the
only endemic cetacean of Chile and is found in two different coastal habitats: a northern
habitat with exposed coastlines, bays and estuaries from Valparaíso (33°02' S) to Chiloé...

To address patterns of genetic connectivity in a mass-aggregating marine fish, we analyzed genetic variation in
mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), microsatellites, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for Nassau grouper (Epinephelus
striatus). We expected Nassau grouper to exhibit genetic differentiation among its subpopulations due to its reproductive
behavior and retentive oceanographic conditions...

The distribution of the Lesser Prairie-Chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) has been markedly reduced due to loss and fragmentation of habitat. Portions of the historical range, however, have been recolonized and even expanded due to planting of conservation reserve program (CRP) fields that provide favorable vegetation structure for Lesser Prairie-Chickens. The source...
