Most species introductions are not expected to result in invasion, and species that are
invasive in one area are frequently not invasive in others. However, cases of introduced …

Increasing interest in oceanography and marine biology and its relevance to global
environmental issues continues to create a demand for authoritative reviews summarizing …

We present a detailed review of 269 published studies using Littorina species in the field of
evolutionary ecology during the last 18 years. We first identify the reasons for the special …

Evolutionary innovations allow populations to colonize new ecological niches. We
previously reported that aerobic growth on citrate (Cit+) evolved in an Escherichia coli …

Phylogeography provides insights into how historical and contemporary processes influence
the genetic structure and gene flow in marine organisms around the globe. In benthic marine …

Aim For over 80 years, the Maine baitworm trade has shipped live polychaete worms and
packing algae 'wormweed'to distributors world‐wide, while also consistently transferring a …

The combination of global warming, resource exploitation and the resulting increase in
Arctic ship** activity are expected to increase the risk of exotic species introductions to …

Biological trait analysis (BTA) is a valuable tool for evaluating changes in community
