Sex change and effective population size: implications for population genetic studies in marine fish.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2016

Coscia I, Chopelet J, Waples R S, Mann B Q, Mariani S

Abstract excerpt

Large variance in reproductive success is the primary factor that reduces effective population size (Ne) in natural populations. In sequentially hermaphroditic (sex-changing) fish, the sex ratio is typically skewed and biased towards the 'first' sex, while reproductive success increases considerably after sex change. Therefore, sex-changing fish populations are theoretically expected to have lower Ne than...
