Detection of Genetic Patterns in Endangered Marine Species Is Affected by Small Sample Sizes

Knowledge of Genetic diversity and its spatial distribution is crucial to improve conservation plans for endangered species. Genetic tools help ensure species’ long-term persistence by unraveling connectivity patterns and evolutionary trajectories of populations. Here, microsatellite genotypes of in...
