Long range gene flow beyond predictions from oceanographic transport in a tropi...
Tavares, Ana I; Assis, Jorge; Larkin, Patrick D.; Creed, Joel C.; Magalhães, Karine; Horta, Paulo; Engelen, Aschwin; Cardoso, Noelo; Barbosa, CastroThe transport of passively dispersed organisms across tropical margins remains poorly understood. Hypotheses of oceanographic transportation potential lack testing with large scale empirical data. To address this gap, we used the seagrass species, Halodule wrightii, which is unique in spanning the entire tropical Atlantic. We tested the hypothesis that genetic differentiation estimated across its large-scale bi...

Tavares, Ana I; Assis, Jorge; Patrício, A. R.; Ferreira, Rogério; Cheikh, Mohamed Ahmed Sidi; Bandeira, Salomao; Regalla, AissaPopulation connectivity influences the distribution of genetic diversity and divergence along a species range, as the likelihood of extinction or differentiation increases in isolated populations. However, there is still poor understanding of the processes mediating interpopulation dispersal in marine species that are sessile and lack planktonic life stages. One such case is the seagrass species Halodule wright...
