Genomics of the blackspot seabream (Pagellus bogaraveo)

In this study, we show the importance of genomic tools to unravel hidden intra-specific genetic differentiation and provide informed guidelines for stock delimitation. We used a genotyping-by-sequencing approach to define the spatial scale at which the species is distributed. Our findings showed the existence of a genetic cluster in the Atlantic (Gulf of Cadiz) that was not detected in previous studies using mtDNA or microsatellite data.
