Population Genetics to Population Genomics: Revisiting Multispecies Connectivity of the Hawaiian Archipelago

Evan B. Freel, Emily Conklin, Ingrid S. Knapp, Derek W. Kraft et autres

Understanding connectivity between populations is key to identifying hotspots of diversity, dispersal sinks and sources, and effective management units for natural resources. Multi-species connectivity seeks to overcome species-specific idiosyncrasies to identify shared patterns that are most critical to spatial management. The linear …

Impact of anthropogenic sounds on coral reef health and sessile invertebrates

Stephanie Bell, Aude Pacini, Zac H. Forsman, Ingrid S. Knapp et autres

The impact of anthropogenic sound on marine organisms is an emerging area of concern given the increasing levels human based oceanic activity. Effects of noise on marine mammals and to a lesser extent fish have been the focus of previous studies; however, …

assessPool: a flexible pipeline for population genomic analyses of pooled sequencing data

Evan B. Freel, Emily Conklin, Derek W. Kraft, Jonathan Whitney et autres

Abstract Despite the dramatic decrease in high-throughput sequencing costs over time, sequencing the ideal number of individuals for population genetic inference remains prohibitively expensive. When research questions require only population-level resolution, pooling individual samples before sequencing (pool-seq) can substantially reduce costs while …

Global trends and biases in biodiversity conservation research

Iain R. Caldwell, J. Hobbs, Brian W. Bowen, Peter F. Cowman et autres

Efforts to conserve biodiversity have been hampered by long-standing biases, including a disproportionate focus on particular taxa and ecosystems with minimal attention to underlying genetic diversity. We assessed whether these biases have persisted over the past four decades by analyzing trends in …

Coral micro-fragmentation assays for optimizing active reef restoration efforts

Ingrid S. Knapp, Zac H. Forsman, Austin Greene, Erika C. Johnston et autres

The global decline of coral reefs has driven considerable interest in active coral restoration. Despite their importance and dominance on mature reefs, relatively few coral restoration projects use slower growth forms like massive and encrusting coral species. Micro-fragmentation can increase coral cover …

From polyps to pixels: understanding coral reef resilience to local and global change across scales

Mary K. Donovan, Catherine Alves, John H. R. Burns, Crawford Drury et autres

Abstract Context Coral reef resilience is the product of multiple interacting processes that occur across various interacting scales. This complexity presents challenges for identifying solutions to the ongoing worldwide decline of coral reef ecosystems that are threatened by both local and global …

Evolutionary genomics of endangered Hawaiian tree snails (Achatinellidae: Achatinellinae) for conservation of adaptive capacity

Melissa R. Price, Michael G.‏ Hadfield, Ingrid S. Knapp, Robert J. Toonen et autres

Phylogenomic studies can provide insights into speciation, adaptation, and extinction, while providing a roadmap for conservation. Hawaiian tree snails are a model system for an adaptive radiation facing an extinction crisis. In the last 5 years, nearly all populations of Hawaiian tree …

Host-symbiont coevolution, cryptic structure, and bleaching susceptibility, in a coral species complex (Scleractinia; Poritidae)

Zac H. Forsman, Raphael Ritson‐Williams, Kaho H. Tisthammer, Ingrid S. Knapp et autres

The 'species' is a key concept for conservation and evolutionary biology, yet the lines between population and species-level variation are often blurred, especially for corals. The 'Porites lobata species complex' consists of branching and mounding corals that form reefs across the Pacific. …

Genomic divergence and differential gene expression between crustacean ecotypes across a marine thermal gradient

Arsalan Emami‐Khoyi, Ingrid S. Knapp, Daniela M. Monsanto, Bettine Jansen van Vuuren et autres

Abstract Environmental gradients between marine biogeographical provinces separate distinct faunal communities; in the absence of absolute dispersal barriers numerous species nonetheless occur on either side of such boundaries. While the regional populations of such widespread species tend to be morphologically indistinguishable from …

Atlantia, a new genus of Dendrophylliidae (Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Scleractinia) from the eastern Atlantic

Kátia Cristina Cruz Capel, Cataixa López, I Molto-Martin, Carla Zilberberg et autres

Atlantia is described as a new genus pertaining to the family Dendrophylliidae (Anthozoa, Scleractinia) based on specimens from Cape Verde, eastern Atlantic. This taxon was first recognized as Enallopsammia micranthus and later described as a new species, Tubastraea caboverdiana, which then changed …

Unexpectedly high genetic diversity in a rare and endangered seabird in the Hawaiian Archipelago

Carmen Antaky, Emily Conklin, Robert J. Toonen, Ingrid S. Knapp et autres

Seabirds in the order of Procellariiformes have one of the highest proportions of threatened species of any avian order. Species undergoing recovery may be predicted to have a genetic signature of a bottleneck, low genetic diversity, or higher rates of inbreeding. The …
