Phylogeographic origin of a worldwide estuarine invader, the oriental shrimp Palaemon macrodactylus. Phylogeography of Palaemon macrodactylus

We studied the genetic history of the invasion of the oriental shrimp Palaemon macrodactylus. We sampled a significant portion of its native distribution area (Japan) and almost all the introduced range. We provided insights into the number of introduction events, the source population and the vector of introductions.
