Contrasting life histories contribute to divergent patterns of genetic diversity and population connectivity in freshwater sculpin fishes

Abstract Background Life history characteristics are considered important factors influencing the evolutionary processes of natural populations, including the patterns of population genetic structure of a species. The sister species Cottus hangiongensis and C. koreanus are small bottom-dwelling fres...
