Journal ArticleDOI
A review of marine phylogeography in southern Africa
TL;DR: This review describes the state of marine phylogeography in southern Africa, that is, the study of evolutionary relationships at the species level, or amongst closely related species, in relation to the region’s marine environment, and focuses particularly on coastal phylegeography.
Journal ArticleDOI
What limits the distribution of subtidal macrobenthos in permanently open and temporarily open/closed South African estuaries? Salinity vs. sediment particle size
Peter R. Teske,T.H. Wooldridge +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, three major habitat zones were identified: two relating to substrate (a sand zone and a mud zone), and a third zone characterised by water of low salinity (≤2.2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Unexpected genetic structure of mussel populations in South Africa: indigenous Perna perna and invasive Mytilus galloprovincialis
TL;DR: The results suggest that local selection can pro- duce genetic structure opposite to that predicted by oceanographic data and that determining the population structure of indigenous species with similar larval dispersal can help to understand domain expansion of invading species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of life history for genetic structure and migration rates of southern African coastal invertebrates: planktonic, abbreviated and direct development
Peter R. Teske,Isabelle Papadopoulos,Isabelle Papadopoulos,Gerardo I. Zardi,Christopher D. McQuaid,Max Edkins,Charles L. Griffiths,Nigel P. Barker +7 more
TL;DR: The amount of genetic structure within marine biogeographic regions strongly depends on the presence or absence of free-swimming larvae, and whether or not they are capable of active dispersal seems to have little effect on connectivity among populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the macrobenthic faunas of permanently open and temporarily open/closed South African estuaries
Peter R. Teske,T.H. Wooldridge +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, 13 estuaries in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, were broadly categorised according to size and salinity distribution and were assigned to one of the following categories: permanently open estuarial having a strong salinity gradient between mouth and upper estuary, freshwater-deprived permanently open, medium-sized temporarily open/closed estuary, and small, temporarily open or closed.
