Description

Knowledge about and understanding of population structure and connectivity of deep-sea fauna decreases with increasing depth, but such information is crucial for the management of vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) in particular. As such, research using genetic markers, which does not require knowledge of ecological or environmental processes as a prerequisite for the analysis, is a practical method to investigate population connectivity of VME indicator taxa. However, population genetics st...
