Abstract The availability of genomic data for an increasing number species makes it possible to incorporate evolutionary processes into conservation plans. Recent studies show how genetic can inform spatial prioritization (SCP), but they focus on metrics diversity and distinctness derived primarily from neutral sets. Identifying adaptive markers provide important information regarding the capacity populations adapt environmental change. Yet, effect including based SCP in comparison more widely used has not been explored. We existing a commercially exploited species, giant California sea cucumber ( Parastichopus californicus ), perform coastal region British Columbia (BC), Canada. Using RAD‐seq set 717 P. individuals across 24 sampling locations, we identified putatively (i.e., candidate) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotype–environment associations with seafloor temperature. calculated various both candidate SNPs compared outcomes independent combinations metrics. Priority areas varied depending whether or were specific metric used. For example, targeting sites high frequency warm‐temperature‐associated alleles support persistence under future warming prioritized southern region. In contrast, expected heterozygosity at loci uncertainty north. When combining metrics, all scenarios generated intermediate solutions, protecting that span latitudinal thermal gradients. Our results demonstrate distinguishing between affect solutions emphasize importance defining objectives when choosing among SCP.

The geographic distributions of marine species are changing rapidly, with leading range edges following climate poleward, deeper, and in other directions trailing often contracting similar directions. These shifts have their roots fine-scale interactions between organisms environment-including mosaics gradients temperature oxygen-mediated by physiology, behavior, evolution, dispersal, interactions. reassemble food webs can dramatic consequences.

Abstract Whole‐genome resequencing ( WGR ) is a powerful method for addressing fundamental evolutionary biology questions that have not been fully resolved using traditional methods. includes four approaches: the sequencing of individuals to high depth coverage with either unresolved or haplotypes, population genomes by mixing equimolar amounts unlabelled‐individual DNA (Pool‐seq) and multiple from low (lc ).

Abstract Identifying and monitoring locally adaptive genetic variation can have direct utility for conserving species at risk, especially when management may include actions such as translocations restoration, rescue, or assisted gene flow. However, genomic studies of local adaptation require careful planning to be successful, in some cases not a worthwhile use resources.

Recently, Lowry et al. addressed the ability of RADseq approaches to detect loci under selection in genome scans. While authors raise important considerations, such as accounting for extent linkage disequilibrium a study system, we strongly disagree with their overall view inform our understanding genetic basis adaptation. The family protocols has radically improved field population genomics, expanding by several orders magnitude number markers available while substantially reducing cost per marker. Researchers whose goal is identify regions must consider LD experimental system; however, there no magical cutoff below which researchers should refuse use RADseq. further made two major arguments: theoretical argument that modeled likelihood detecting selective sweeps RAD markers, and gross summaries based on an anecdotal collection studies. Unfortunately, simulations were off worst case, anecdotes merely showed it possible get widely divergent densities tags any particular experiment, either design or due efficacy. We argue remains powerful efficient approach provides sufficient marker density studying many natural populations. Given limited resources, wide range trade-offs among genomic techniques, light question power different techniques answer it.

Within a handful of generations, marked phenotypic change can occur—often smaller body sizes, because it is the big that are usually extracted.

Adaptation to local conditions is a fundamental process in evolution; however, mechanisms maintaining adaptation despite high gene flow are still poorly understood. Marine ecosystems provide wide array of diverse habitats that frequently promote ecological even species characterized by strong levels flow. As one example, populations the marine fish Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) highly connected due immense dispersal capabilities but nevertheless show several key traits. By combining population genomic analyses based on 12K single nucleotide polymorphisms with larval patterns inferred using biophysical ocean model, we individuals residing sheltered estuarine Scandinavian fjords mainly belong offshore oceanic considerable connectivity between these ecosystems. Nevertheless, also find evidence for discrete fjord genetically differentiated from populations, indicative adaptation, degree which appears be influenced connectivity.
