Riverscape genetics of the Murrumbidgee Macquarie perch population

This repository contains data and scripts used in the manuscriptPavlova A, Pearce L, Sturgiss F, Lake E, Sunnucks P, & Lintermans M. (2024). Immediate genetic augmentation and enhanced habitat connectivity are required to secure the future of an iconic endangered freshwater fish population.
