Abstract excerpt
Overexploitation of marine species invariably results in population decline but can also have indirect effects on ecological processes such as larval dispersal and recruitment that ultimately affect genetic diversity and population resilience. We compared microsatellite DNA variation among depleted and healthy populations of the black-lip abalone Haliotis rubra from Tasmania, Australia, to determine if...
