The ecological and evolutionary significance of seed banks in Arabidopsis thaliana

Many studies of the genetic structuring of annual, selfing Arabidopsis thaliana populations on various geographical scales have been performed in recent years. Some studies conclude that local populations may contain relatively high amounts of genetic var iability both in phenotypic traits and pu...

Biodiversity of marine benthos: perspective from a global change

The impacts of pronounced climate change are now apparent at various sites in the Subarctic and Arctic, and numerical simulation models converge on the prediction that future warming trends will be amplified at high northern latitudes. There is therefore an immediate and pressing need to develop ...

Genomics as a tool for detecting selection in farm Atlantic salmon and interactions between escaped farm and wild salmon

Norway is of unique importance for the Atlantic salmon, both as the largest producer of farmed salmon and a main reservoir of wild stocks. However, escaped farmed fish make up a significant portion of spawners in the wild, and there is concern that the ge netic constitution of wild stocks is dete...

Sustainable harvesting of marine resources: interactions between demographic, ecological and evolutionary effects of fishing

Fishing does not affect all fish equally. Evolutionary changes ensue whenever there are survival differences between genotypes. As fishing is often intensive, the resulting changes can be rapid. Recent work suggests that significant evolutionary changes i n maturation are common in the wild and h...
