Multiple paternity was investigated in the starry smooth-hound shark, Mustelus asterias Cloquet, 1821. Analysis of 12 pregnant females and their embryos, at four microsatellite loci, showed that at least 58% carried multiply-sired litters. Paternal s...

Journal Article
Pedreschi, D., Kelly-Quinn, M., Caffrey, J., O'Grady, M., & Mariani, S. (2014). Genetic structure of pike (Esox lucius) reveals a complex and previously unrecognized colonization history of Ireland. Journal of Biogeography, 41(3), 548-560. https://doi.org/10.1111/jbi.12220

Aim: We investigated genetic variation of Irish pike populations and their relationship with European outgroups, in order to elucidate the origin of this species to the island, which is largely assumed to have occurred as a human-mediated introductio...
