TL;DR: Emergent trends and gaps in understanding are identified, new approaches to more fully integrate genomics into speciation research are proposed, and an integrative definition of the field of speciation genomics is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complete mitochondrial genome phylogeographic analysis of killer whales (Orcinus orca) indicates multiple species
Phillip A. Morin,Frederick I. Archer,Andrew D. Foote,Julia T. Vilstrup,Eric E. Allen,Paul R. Wade,John W. Durban,Kim M. Parsons,Robert L. Pitman,Lewyn Li,Pascal Bouffard,Sandra C. A. Nielsen,Morten Rasmussen,Eske Willerslev,M. Thomas P. Gilbert,Timothy T. Harkins +15 more
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis indicated that each of the known ecotypes represents a strongly supported clade with divergence times ranging from approximately 150,000 to 700,000 yr ago, and it is predicted that phylogeographic mitogenomics will become an important tool for improved statistical phyloGeography and more precise estimates of divergence times.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results suggest that, whereas convergent molecular evolution is relatively common, adaptive molecular convergence linked to phenotypic convergence is comparatively rare.
Journal ArticleDOI
PCB pollution continues to impact populations of orcas and other dolphins in European waters

TL;DR: It is shown that several cetacean species have very high mean blubber PCB concentrations likely to cause population declines and suppress population recovery, and some locations are global PCB “hotspots” for marine mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigating the Potential Use of Environmental DNA (eDNA) for Genetic Monitoring of Marine Mammals
Andrew D. Foote,Philip Francis Thomsen,Signe Sveegaard,Magnus Wahlberg,Jos Kielgast,Line A. Kyhn,Andreas Salling,Anders Galatius,Ludovic Orlando,M. Thomas P. Gilbert +9 more
TL;DR: To determine the potential use of eDNA for genetic monitoring, specific primers that amplify short mitochondrial DNA sequences were used to detect the presence of a marine mammal, the harbor porpoise, in a controlled environment and in natural marine locations.
