Selection Against Hybrids Maintains Genetic Divergence Between Populations of a Coastal Cleaner Fish Translocated Across a Genetic Break

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic divergence between populations and/or species is mainly driven by reproductive isolation, that is, reduced gene flow, due to either pre‐ and/or postzygotic barriers. In this study, we investigate the role of (i) reproductive ecological interactions and (ii) mechanisms of evolutionary isolation between two genetically differentiated ...

Geographic redistribution of farmed salmonids reduces salmon lice infestations and treatment frequency in a simulation study

Aquaculture Environment Interactions
Host density is a key driver in parasite population dynamics, and often the number of parasites increases rapidly with host density. In the context of Norwegian salmonid farming, this mechanism has led to a disparity between the desire to increase ...
