Population structure and connectivity of tiger sharks (<i>Galeocerdo cuvier</i>) across the Indo-Pacific Ocean basin.
Royal Society open science 20170705 7
Population genetic structure using nine polymorphic nuclear microsatellite loci was assessed for the tiger shark (<i>Galeocerdo cuvier</i>) at seven locations across the Indo-Pacific, and one location in the southern Atlantic. Genetic analyses revealed considerable genetic structuring (<i>F</i><sub>ST</sub> > 0.14, <i>p</i> < 0.001) between all Indo-Pacific locations and Brazil. By contrast, no significant genetic differences were observed between locations from within the Pacific or Indian Ocea ...[more]
