Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The endangered fish Percocypris pingi is a national second-class protected animal in China. Comprehensive evaluation of the genetic structure according to more reliable data and exploration of effective conservation measures are urgently needed for P. pingi. In this study, the genetic diversity, population structure, and adaptive evolutionary mechanism of circadian entrainment for P. pingi were...
