“…A lack of apparent genetic structure between these Australian and New Zealand sharks has been reported, using allozyme, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), and microsatellites (Hernández et al, ; Ward & Gardner, ), thus questioning the existence of impervious reproductive boundaries in this region. However, a more recent study, with the mitochondrial and similar nuclear microsatellite markers, found a clear separation in the microsatellite data between Tasmania and New Zealand (Bester‐van der Merwe et al, ). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been shown to outperform microsatellites in population discrimination due to their random spread across the genome, lower ascertainment bias, higher accuracy and resolution, reproducibility, and comparability (Andrews, Good, Miller, Luikart, & Hohenlohe, ; Fischer et al, ; Muñoz et al, ; Seeb et al, ).…”
