Three-year monitoring of genetic diversity reveals a micro-connectivity pattern and local recruitment in the broadcast marine species Paracentrotus lividus.

Abstract excerpt

In conservation and management of marine biological resources, a knowledge of connectivity is necessary to understand how local populations are naturally replenished by the arrival of new recruits from source populations. At small geographical scales, species experiencing moderate to long pelagic larval phases are mostly genetically homogeneous, which hinders inferences about local connectivity. Recent studies...
