Contrasting patterns of population structure in two habitat-forming kelp species in southeastern Australia.

Abstract excerpt

The distribution and connectivity of species around the globe are changing at a rapid pace. Increasing sea temperatures are a driving factor of changes in temperate macroalgal distributions. Southeast Australia is considered a global ocean-warming hotspot, where macroalgal populations are predicted to decline significantly by 2100. We used genotyping by sequencing and Lagrangian particle modeling to compare the...
