Biotic and abiotic factors shaping the genome of cockle (Cerastoderma edule) in the Northeast Atlantic: a baseline for sustainable management of its wild resources
Abstract:Knowledge on how environmental factors shape the genome of marine species is crucial for sustainable management of fisheries and wild populations. The edible cockle (Cerastoderma edule) is a marine bivalve distributed along the Northeast Atlantic coast of Europe and is an important resource from both commercial and ecological perspectives. We performed a population genomics screening using 2b-RAD genotyping on 9,309 SNPs localised in the cockle’s genome on a sample of 536 specimens pertaining to 14 beds in the… Show more
