Population differentiation decreases with depth in deep-sea bivalves.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2005

Etter Ron J, Rex Michael A, Chase Michael R, Quattro Joseph M

Abstract excerpt

The deep sea is the largest ecosystem on Earth. Recent exploration has revealed that it supports a highly diverse and endemic benthic invertebrate fauna, yet the evolutionary processes that generate this remarkable species richness are virtually unknown. Environmental heterogeneity, topographic complexity, and morphological divergence all tend to decrease with depth, suggesting that the potential for population...
