Geographical patterns of genetic structure in marine species with contrasting life histories (2009, background): “…depend on estuaries to complete their life cycles tend to exhibit lower connectivity than purely marine species, even though they may have a planktonic larval stage, and strong genetic differentiation between populations in adjacent estuaries is common (Bilton et al., 2002; Watts & Johnson, 2004).”
Ocean's eleven: a critical evaluation of the role of population, evolutionary and molecular genetics in the management of wild fisheries (2015, background): “Similar multispecies analyses have been conducted in south-western Australia (Ayvazian et al. 1994; Watts and Johnson 2004) and elsewhere (Waples 1987; Pelc et al.”
Habitat type promotes rapid and extremely localised genetic differentiation in dolphins (2007, background): “…marine populations have also been reported for inshore fish species that inhabit environments isolated from ocean currents and characterised by variable environmental conditions, such as enclosed embayments, lagoons and estuaries (e.g. Beheregaray and Sunnucks 2001; Watts and Johnson 2004).”
