Dispersal behaviour and riverine network connectivity shape the genetic diversity of freshwater amphipod metapopulations.

Molecular ecology - 1 Dec 2021

Alther Roman, Fronhofer Emanuel A, Altermatt Florian

Abstract excerpt

Theory predicts that the distribution of genetic diversity in a landscape is strongly dependent on the connectivity of the metapopulation and the dispersal of individuals between patches. However, the influence of explicit spatial configurations such as dendritic landscapes on the genetic diversity of metapopulations is still understudied, and theoretical corroborations of empirical patterns are largely lacking....
