Population structure in anadromous lampreys: Patterns and processes
Mateus, Catarina Sofia; Docker, Margaret; Guillaume, Evanno; Hess, John; Hume, John; Oliveira, Inês; Souissi, Ahmed; Sutton, TrentPopulation structure can reveal the diversity, gene flow, and dispersal of a species. This information can be used to make management decisions and reveal fundamental aspects of an organism’s biology. Distinct intrinsic (e.g., biological characteristics) and extrinsic (e.g., geographical and historical events, environment, human pressures) factors can influence population structure, with significant differences...
Synergizing basic and applied scientific approaches to help understand lamprey ...
Hume, John; Bracken, Fiona; Mateus, Catarina S.; Brant, CoryLampreys (Petromyzontiformes) are a key component of freshwater ecosystems throughout temperate parts of the world. Of the 44 described species of lamprey, the sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) is certainly the most commonly recognized. This species has expanded its range from the Atlantic Ocean basin where it is of conservation concern in North America and Europe into the Laurentian Great Lakes where it is subj...
