Genetic hitchhiking in a subdivided population of Mytilus edulis.

BMC evolutionary biology - 30 May 2008

Faure Matthieu F, David Patrice, Bonhomme François, Bierne Nicolas

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Few models of genetic hitchhiking in subdivided populations have been developed and the rarity of empirical examples is even more striking. We here provide evidences of genetic hitchhiking in a subdivided population of the marine mussel Mytilus edulis. In the Bay of Biscay (France), a patch of M. edulis populations happens to be separated from its North Sea conspecifics by a wide region occupied only...
