Peer Review #1 of "Large-scale gene flow in the barnacle Jehlius cirratus and contrasts with other broadly-distributed taxa along the Chilean coast (v0.1)"
Abstract:We evaluate the population genetic structure of the intertidal barnacle Jehlius cirratus across a broad portion of its geographic distribution using data from the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene region. Despite sampling diversity from over 3000 km of the linear range of this species, there is only slight regional structure indicated, with overall Φ CT of 0.036 (p<0.001) yet no support for isolation by distance. While these results suggest greater structure than previous studies of J. cirratus had… Show more
