• Comparative population genetics of habitat-forming octocorals in two marine protected areas: eco-evolutionary and management implications 

      Horaud, Mathilde; Arizmendi-Meija, Rosana; Nebot-Colomer, Elisabet; López-Sendino, Paula; Antunes, Agostinho; Dellicour, Simon; Viard, Frédérique; Leblois, Raphael; Linares, Cristina; Garrabou, Joaquim; Ledoux, Jean-Baptiste (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-30)
      Current eforts to halt the decline of biodiversity are based primarily on protecting species richness. This narrow focus overlooks key components of biological diversity, particularly the infra-species genetic diversity, which is critical to consider with respect to genetic adaptation in changing environments. While comparative population genetics is recognized as a relevant approach to improve ...

      Progress in genome sequencing now enables the large-scale generation of reference genomes. Various international initiatives aim to generate reference genomes representing global biodiversity. These genomes provide unique insights into genomic diversity and architecture, thereby enabling comprehensive analyses of population and functional genomics, and are expected to revolutionize ...

      The availability of public genomic resources can greatly assist biodiversity assessment, conservation, and restoration efforts by providing evidence for scientifically informed management decisions. Here we survey the main approaches and applications in biodiversity and conservation genomics, considering practical factors, such as cost, time, prerequisite skills, and current shortcomings of applications. ...
