Abstract Aim Drivers of extant population genetic structure include past climate‐driven range shifts and vicariant events, as well gene flow mediated by dispersal habitat continuity. Their integration alternative or complementary drivers is often missing incomplete, potentially overlooking relevant processes time scales. Here we ask whether it the imprint connectivity driven oceanographic transport that best explain in a poorly understood model, forest‐forming African kelp. Location Southwestern coast Africa (Benguela current region). Taxon Laminaria pallida . Methods We estimated variability along species distributional using 14 microsatellite markers. This was compared to estimates derived from distribution modelling for Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), mid‐Holocene (MH) present, biophysical modelling. Results The structured two clusters, southern cluster with much richer (allelic richness A: 10.40 ± 0.33) unique (private alleles PA: 56.69 4.05) diversity, northern (A: 4.75 0.17; 6.70 1.45). These clusters matched well‐known biogeographical regions their transition coincided barrier formed upwelled offshore transport. No major events were hindcasted present range, suggesting stability LGM present. Main conclusions Habitat connectivity, rather than shifts, explains structure. Future environmental requirements Benguela upwelling system are projected persist even intensify, likely preserving observed patterns years come.

Abstract Intraspecific variation, which may arise through the interplay between environmental heterogeneity and adaptive has consequences for resilience of species to climate change. Here, we revealed levels intraspecific genomic variation its causes in a widespread brown alga ( Sargassum horneri ). Our datasets included both benthic floating samples from 20 populations sampled along latitudinal gradient Chinese marginal seas. We prepared two datasets: 1) 4628 filtered single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) all samples, 2) 20,735 SNPs only samples. conducted genotype‐environment association analyses outlier tests identify loci each dataset.

Based on these results, speculate have high global warming. The dispersal routes were determined by coastal currents; restricted gene flow regions was detected.

Abstract Uncovering what predicts genetic diversity (GD) within species can help us access the status of populations and their evolutionary potential. Traits related to effective population size show a proportional association GD, but evidence supports life‐history strategies habitat as drivers GD variation. Instead investigating highly divergent taxa, focusing on one group could elucidate factors influencing GD. Additionally, most empirical data is based vertebrate taxa; therefore, we might be missing novel patterns found in neglected invertebrate groups. Here, investigated predictors crabs (Brachyura) by compiling comprehensive cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) available. Eight predictor variables were analysed across 150 (16 992 sequences) using linear models (multiple regression) comparative methods (PGLS). Our results indicate that fluctuation represents critical trait predicting with have undergone bottlenecks followed expansion showing lower Egg size, pelagic larval duration play role probably because how respond disturbances.

Abstract Aim In order to provide a more comprehensive, community‐level understanding of marine gene flow and connectivity, we wished first identify geographic regions common spatial genetic divergence across multiple species along southern temperate coastline, then determine which biological ecological factors best explain the diversity in patterns among species. Location New Zealand (NZ) coastline. Taxon Twenty‐one benthic invertebrate. Materials Methods A novel approach was used that involved: (1) use divergences ( F ST ) from previously published studies quantitatively describe population structure within each as fitted spline curve, (2) clustering by their similarity pattern using dendrogram curve similarities, (3) testing whether nine known life‐history traits are associated with sharing similar patterns, distance‐based regression. Results Comparisons revealed not one, but four major unexpected groups The locations those identified, differ substantially relative importance, compared prior expectations.
