Journal ArticleDOI

Complete mitochondrial genome phylogeographic analysis of killer whales (Orcinus orca) indicates multiple species

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

stratag: An r package for manipulating, summarizing and analysing population genetic data.

TL;DR: The r package stratag is introduced as a user‐friendly population genetics toolkit that provides easy access to a suite of standard genetic summaries as well as the ability to rapidly manipulate stratified genetic data for custom analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogenome Phylogenetics: The Impact of Using Single Regions and Partitioning Schemes on Topology, Substitution Rate and Divergence Time Estimation

TL;DR: Although the results indicate that complete mitogenomes provide the highest phylogenetic resolution and most precise date estimates, a minimum amount of data can be selected using the approach when the complete sequence is unavailable, this suggests that gene information content can vary among groups, but can be adequately represented by a portion of the complete sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differentiation measures for conservation genetics

TL;DR: It is shown that in the finite island model, the absolute number of migrants determines nearness to fixation, not allelic differentiation, and that when conservation decisions require judgments about differences in genetic composition between demes, allelelic differentiation measures should be used instead of fixation measures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeted multiplex next‐generation sequencing: advances in techniques of mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequencing for population genomics

TL;DR: A synthesis of protocols for targeted resequencing of mitochondrial and nuclear loci by generating indexed genomic libraries for multiplexing up to 100 individuals in a single sequencing pool, and then enriching the pooled library using custom DNA capture arrays is detailed.
