• Phylogeny and phylogeography of Atlantic oyster species: evolutionary history, limited genetic connectivity and isolation by distance (2011, background): “Standard coalescent models may not be applicable to species with extremely high fecundities (Eldon & Wakeley 2006) and high variance in the cross-generation contribution to the gene pool (the sweepstakes hypothesis; Hedgecock 1994, Hedgecock et al. 2007), like those observed in oysters.”

• Strategies for the retention of high genetic variability in European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) restoration programmes (2010, background): “Recent studies reported high variance of reproductive success in oysters both in the wild (Li and Hedgecock 1998; Hedgecock et al. 2007) and under aquaculture conditions (Hedgecock et al. 1992; Boudry et al. 2002; Taris et al. 2007; Lallias et al. , unpublished results).”
• Linkage disequilibrium estimates of contemporary Ne using highly variable genetic markers: a largely untapped resource for applied conservation and evolution (2009, methodology): “…excess method is generally much less precise than other single-sample estimators (Nomura 2008; Wang 2009) and is best suited for analyzing small populations of species with Type III survivorship for which large samples of offspring are possible (Hedgecock et al. 2007; Pudovkin et al. 2009).”
