Maintenance of genetic diversity in marine fishes targeted by commercial fishing is a grand
challenge for the future. Most of these species are abundant and therefore important for …

Barriers to gene flow between divergent populations result in contact (hybrid) zones.
Locations where multiple contact zones overlap can be used in comparative studies asking …

Marine environments are inhabited by a broad representation of the tree of life, yet our
understanding of speciation in marine ecosystems is extremely limited compared with …

Climate change is restructuring biodiversity on multiple scales and there is a pressing need
to understand the downstream ecological and genomic consequences of this change …

As we enter the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development,
extensive efforts to reverse the decline of ocean health are taking place. Moreover, the need …

The Atlantic herring and Atlantic cod are two marine fish species that have successfully
adapted to the brackish Baltic Sea, and the former is able to spawn in near-freshwater …

Brackish water ecosystems often have high primary production, intermediate salinities, and
fluctuating physical conditions and therefore provide challenging environments for many of …

As a promising novel marine fish model for future research on marine ecotoxicology as well
as an animal model of human disease, the genome information of yellowstripe goby …

Host shifting in insect-plant systems was historically important to the development of
ecological speciation theory, yet surprisingly few studies have examined whether host …

Climate change is a growing threat to marine organisms and ecosystems, and it is already
modifying ocean properties by, for example, increasing temperature and decreasing pH …
