Genomics versus mtDNA for resolving stock structure in the silky shark (Carcharhinus falciformis)

Abstract: Conservation genetic approaches for elasmobranchs have focused on regions of the mitochondrial genome or a handful of nuclear microsatellites. High-throughput sequencing offers a powerful alternative for examining population structure using many loci distributed across the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. These single nucleotide polymorphisms are expected to provide finer scale and more accurate population level data; however, there have been few genomic studies applied to elasmobranch species. The desire to… Show more

“…This is expected, as different molecular markers and metrics vary in characteristics such as sample size and mutation rate (Morin et al, 2004). However, it is interesting to note that the two marker types displayed highly similar spatial arrays of diversity for C. punctatus and P. angulosus, corroborating other studies that suggest that although different markers may display varying degrees of genetic diversity, the spatial arrangement of diversity is the same (Beatty & Provan, 2011b;Kraft et al, 2020).…”

“…Genetic parent age analyses compare DNA between adults and new recruits, thereby connecting parent− offspring pairs (Christie et al 2017, Coleman 2019. While single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based parentage analyses have become more accessible and cost-effective in recent years (Kraft et al 2020), these analyses are still constrained by the need to collect tissue specimens from large numbers of individuals. This can make interannual variation hard to quantify, in part because of the extensive effort required to collect a large number of tissue samples, and in part because destructive sampling methods remove possible future adults from the population (however, see Catalano et al 2021 for a 7 yr parentage study of an ane mone fish).…”

“…Existing population genetic analysis suggests that there may be population structure within the Indo-Pacific, but it is unclear how population boundaries align with RMFO jurisdictions (Clarke et al, 2015). Genomic studies may clear this up and help build a clearer baseline for finer scale genetic tracing of silky shark fins in the future (Kraft et al, 2020).…”
