Are populations of economically important bonefish and queen conch 'open' or 'closed' in the northern caribbean basin?

open access: yes, 2021
Demographics of co-occurring species can often be diagnosed through population genomic analyses of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). These data can define population structure, gene flow, plus candidate regions in the genome that potentially ...
