Ecological opportunities and specializations shaped genetic divergence in a highly mobile marine top predator

Abstract: Environmental conditions can shape genetic and morphological divergence. Release of new habitats during historical environmental changes was a major driver of evolutionary diversification. Here, forces shaping population structure and ecotype differentiation ('pelagic' and 'coastal') of bottlenose dolphins in the North-east Atlantic were investigated using complementary evolutionary and ecological approaches. Inference of population demographic history using approximate Bayesian computation indicated that coas… Show more

“…During the last glacial maximum (from 26,500 to 19,000 years ago (Clark, 2009)), habitat conditions in the Mediterranean Sea were strikingly different from the current oligotrophic state, with colder conditions (Fontaine et al, 2014(Fontaine et al, , 2010. The Mediterranean Sea was a suitable habitat for cold-water species such as the harbour porpoise (Fontaine et al, 2014(Fontaine et al, , 2010. The postglacial warming presumably led to habitat fragmentation and eventually to the retreat of the harbour porpoise from most of the Mediterranean Sea (Cucknell et al, 2016;Fontaine et al, 2014Fontaine et al, , 2010.…”

“…Indeed this is already occurring for baleen whales in the western North Atlantic (Ramp et al, 2015). During the last glacial maximum (from 26,500 to 19,000 years ago (Clark, 2009)), habitat conditions in the Mediterranean Sea were strikingly different from the current oligotrophic state, with colder conditions (Fontaine et al, 2014(Fontaine et al, , 2010.
