A decade of seascape genetics: contributions to basic and applied marine connectivity

摘要: Seascape genetics, a term coined in 2006, is fast growing area of population genetics that draws on ecology, oceanography and geography to address challenges basic understanding mar- ine connectivity applications management. We provide an accessible overview the latest develop- ments seascape merge exciting new ideas from field marine with statistical technical advances genetics. After summarizing historical context leading emergence we detail questions methodological approaches are evolving discipline, highlight conservation management, conclude summary field's transition ge- nomics. From 100 genetic studies, assess trends taxonomic geographic coverage, sam- pling design, dominant drivers. Notably, temperature, geo - graphy show equal prevalence influence spatial patterns, tests over 20 other factors suggest variety forces impact connec- tivity at distinct spatio-temporal scales. A level rigor analysis critical for disentangling multiple drivers spurious effects. Coupled GIS data genomic scale sequencing methods, this taking beyond initial focus identifying correlations hypothesis-driven insights into patterns processes
