Abstract excerpt
Understanding the origin and maintenance of genetic diversity is crucial to elucidate population dynamics of unicellular microalgae, their microevolutionary history and their adaptive ability. The planktonic, domoic acid-producing diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata has a ubiquitous distribution in the world oceans and past population genetics studies, based on few genomic loci, have shown a clear temporal...
