Complex population structure of the Atlantic puffin revealed by whole genome analyses

Complex population structure of the Atlantic puffin revealed by whole genome analyses

Kersten et al. sequence a draft genome for the Atlantic puffin and report its population structure, genetic diversity and gene flow among four main clusters of populations across the northern Atlantic. These results identify a secondary contact zone between the puffins from the High Arctic and other...
