Crossing the line: migratory and homing behaviors of Atlantic bluefin tuna (2014, background): “…from eastern (Mediterranean Sea) and western (Gulf of Mexico) spawning grounds are genetically distinct based on analysis of mtDNA control region sequence data (Φst) (Boustany et al. 2008), microsatellites (Carlsson et al. 2007), and single nucleotide polymorphisms (Albaina et al. 2013).”
Lessons learned from practical approaches to reconcile mismatches between biological population structure and stock units of marine fish (2017, background): “…is a highly migratory species composed of two spawning populations that exhibit natal homing with the western population spawning in the Gulf of Mexico and adjacent waters and the eastern population spawning in the Mediterranean Sea (Figure 1; Boustany et al., 2008; Rooker et al., 2008, 2014).”
Population genetics of Australian white sharks reveals fine-scale spatial structure, transoceanic dispersal events and low effective population sizes (2012, background): “…ge - netic analysis contradicts assumptions of panmixia in some species, e.g. narrow-barred Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus commerson (Sulaiman & Ovenden 2010), Atlantic bluefin tuna Thunnus thynnus (Boustany et al. 2008, Riccioni et al. 2010) and whale shark Rhincodon typus (Castro et al. 2007).”
