Atlantic herring, Clupea harengus, have complex population structures. Mixing of
populations is known, but the extent of connectivity is still unclear. Phenotypic plasticity
results in divergent phenotypes in response to environmental factors. A marked salinity …

Biological invasions are increasing globally in number and extent despite efforts to restrict
their spread. Knowledge of incursion pathways is necessary to prevent new invasions and to
design effective biosecurity protocols at source and recipient locations. This study uses …

Delineating population structure helps fishery managers to maintain a diverse “portfolio” of
local spawning populations (stocks), as well as facilitate stock‐specific management. In
Lake Erie, commercial and recreational fisheries for Walleye Sander vitreus exploit …

Abstract The Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) is a prominent aquatic invader with
substantial negative economic and environmental impacts. The aim of the present study was
to re-evaluate the genetic diversity of mitten crabs throughout their native and invaded …

Background The animal model is a key tool in quantitative genetics and has been used
extensively to estimate fundamental parameters, such as additive genetic variance or
heritability. An implicit assumption of animal models is that all founder individuals derive …

Translocated saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) in the Northern Territory (NT) of
Australia often return to their original capture sites, which complicates management
interventions aimed at reducing human-crocodile conflict. We examined the spatial events …

Resolving stock structure is crucial for fisheries conservation to ensure that the spatial
implementation of management is commensurate with that of biological population units. To
address this in the economically important European lobster (Homarus gammarus), genetic …

Wildlife forensics has recently been recognized among the wide variety of forensic science
disciplines. This review compares human and wildlife DNA forensics, which use the same
genetic tools, but often for far different purposes. Human forensic genetics almost invariably …
