Genetic Structure of Coral Reef Organisms: Ghosts of Dispersal Past [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Zoologist, 1999
SYNOPSIS. Molecular genetic studies are revealing the presence of cryptic taxa, and patterns of gene flow in coral reef species, that do not correspond to present day ocean circulation patterns. Concordant borders of genetic inhomogeneity in several taxa emphasise the influence of historical barriers to gene flow. The persistence of genetic differences

Scaling the effects of size and temperature on animal consumption rates from individuals to populations in a subtropical reef fish

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Measuring how temperature and body size drive individual consumption rates is fundamental to predict how climate change might shape population‐level consumption pressure. Yet, such measurements remain rare.
