Description
Summary:Background: The relationships between North Atlantic and North Pacific faunas through times have been controlled by the variation of hydrographic circumstances in the intervening Arctic Ocean and Bering Strait. We address the history of trans-Arctic connections in a clade of amphi-boreal pelagic fishes using genealogical information from mitochondrial DNA sequence data. The Pacific and Atlantic herrings (Clupea pallasii and C. harengus) have basically vicarious distributions in the two oceans since pre-Pleistocene times. However, remote populations of C. pallasii are also present in the border waters of the North-East Atlantic in Europe. These populations show considerable regional and life history differentiation and have been recognized in subspecies classification. The chronology of the inter-oceanic invasions and genetic basis of the phenotypic structuring however remain unclear. Results: The Atlantic and Pacific herrings both feature high mtDNA diversities (large long-term population sizes) in their ... : SampleID_listList of individual samples with sampling locations and Genbank accession numbers for cytochrome-b and control region.Arlq_cytb_populationsArlequin input files with population grouping for cytochrome-b data.Arlq_cr_populationsArlequin input files with population grouping for control region data.Arlq_trans_Arctic_populations_concatArlequin input files with population grouping for concatenated data.IM_CYTB_NWP_MEZCHEIM input file for comparing NW Pacific lineage with Mezen-Chesha populations.IM_CYTB_NWP_WSIIM input file for comparing NW Pacific lineage with White Sea (and Pechora Indiga) populations.IM_CYTB_NWP_BLSIM input file for comparing NW Pacific lineage with Balsfjord population.Distance matrix for the MDS ordinationPairwise interpopulation ΦST distance matrix of trans-Arctic lineage populations for MDS ordination. ...
