Microsatellite variation in marine, freshwater and anadromous fishes compared with other animals
Open accessAbstract
From a total of 524 microsatellite loci considered in nearly 40 000 individuals of 78 species, freshwater fish displayed levels of population genetic variation (mean heterozygosity, h=0·46, and mean numbers of alleles per locus, a=7·5) roughly similar to those of non-piscine animals (h=0·58 and a=7·1). In contrast, local population samples of marine fish displayed on average significantly higher heterozygosities (h=0·79) and nearly three times the number of alleles per locus (a=20·6). Anadromous fish were intermediate to marine and freshwater fish (h=0·68 and a=11·3). Results parallel earlier comparative summaries of allozyme variation in marine, anadromous, and freshwater fishes and probably are attributable in part to differences in evolutionarily effective population sizes typifying species inhabiting these realms.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
