Simulating Gene Flow from Ocean Flow? James Watson, UCSB
2
What does F3 give us... 1.) The abundance of adults at a place at a time 2.) The migration of individuals between populations
3
We can use this.... 1.) Increase book keeping - record age, sex and genetic makeup of all fish - larvae and adults - For the geographers - Categorical data 2.) Investigate the propagation of categorical data through the system by ocean currents
4
Genetic discontinuity What can we learn...
5
A Basic evolutionary concept... 1.) Divergence (geographic isolation, genetic drift) 2.) Convergence (migration, mutation)... We’re testing Genetic Structure driven by ocean currents
6
A good question to ask... 1.) Is there any structure in the Southern California Bight
7
Fst Fixation index of the subpopulation compared to the total population (a measure of variance) = Fst for the Southern California Bight 0.00022 =
8
1.) If structure - where are the DISCONTINUITIES 2.) The evolution of selective traits 3.) Species Ranges Other good questions to ask...
