Phylogeography of Phycodrys rubens (Linnaeus) batters from mainland Norway and Svalbard based on nuclear and mtDNA sequences and microsatellites
Phycodrys rubens is a common cold temperate red macroalga in the North Atlantic, a region with a diverse natural history that has shaped the phylogeography for many species. In this study microsatellite loci as well as nuclear and mtDNA sequences were used to investigate the phylogeography and popul...
