Population structure and genetic variation in two tropical sea anemones (Cnidaria, actinidae) with different reproductive strategies

A study found that the genetic variation and population structure of two tropical sea anemones, Bunodosoma caissarum Correa and Actinia bermudensis McMurrich were related to their different dispersal capabilities and reproductive modes. Overall levels of genetic variation and heterozygosity in the t...

Zusammenfassung:A study found that the genetic variation and population structure of two tropical sea anemones, Bunodosoma caissarum Correa and Actinia bermudensis McMurrich were related to their different dispersal capabilities and reproductive modes. Overall levels of genetic variation and heterozygosity in the two species were compatible with their known modes of reproduction.
