Asynchronous spawning in sympatric populations of a hard coral reveals cryptic species and ancient genetic lineages.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2015

Rosser Natalie L

Abstract excerpt

Genetic subdivision within a species is a vital component of the evolution of biodiversity. In some species of Acropora corals in Western Australia, conspecific individuals spawn in two seasons 6 months apart, which has the potential to impede gene flow and result in genetic divergence. Genetic comparison of sympatric spring and autumn spawners of Acropora samoensis was conducted to assess the level of...
