Phylogenomics Reveals the Evolutionary History of Phytolacca (Phytolaccaceae)
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Phytolacca is the largest genus of Phytolaccaceae. Owing to interspecific hybridization, infraspecific variation, and apparent weak genetic control of many qualitative characters, which have obscured boundaries between species, the classification and ...

RADseq analyses reveal concordant Indian Ocean biogeographic and phylogeographic boundaries in the reef fish Dascyllus trimaculatus [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Population genetic analysis is an important tool for estimating the degree of evolutionary connectivity in marine organisms. Here, we investigate the population structure of the three-spot damselfish Dascyllus trimaculatus in the Red Sea, Arabian Sea and

Predicting plankton net community production in the Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
, 2009 We present, test and implement two contrasting models to predict euphotic zone net community production (NCP), which are based on 14C primary production (PO14CP) to NCP relationships over two latitudinal (ca.

Dispersal and gene flow in free-living marine nematodes [PDF]
, 2013 Dispersal and gene flow determine connectivity among populations, and can be studied through population genetics and phylogeography. We here review the results of such a framework for free-living marine nematodes.

Modelling the biogeographic boundary shift of Calanus finmarchicus reveals drivers of Arctic Atlantification by subarctic zooplankton [PDF]
Global Change Biology, 2021 AbstractBiological communities in the Arctic are changing through the climate‐driven encroachment of subarctic species. This “Atlantification” extends to keystone Calanoid copepods, as the small‐bodied Calanus finmarchicus increases in abundance in areas where it overlaps with larger Arctic congeners.
