Abstract:Globally, hammerhead sharks have experienced severe declines owing to
continued overexploitation and anthropogenic change. The smooth
hammerhead shark Sphyrna zygaena remains comparatively understudied
compared to other members of the family Sphyrnidae, and despite its
Vulnerable status, a comprehensive understanding of its genetic
landscape remains lacking. The present study aimed to conduct a
fine-scale genomic assessment of Sphyrna zygaena within the highly
dynamic marine environment of South Africa’s coast… Show more
