1 Genetic Connectivity of Pelagic Fishes (Katsuwonus pelamis and Scomberomorus commerson) across the Indo-West Pacific Alexis Jackson 1, Paul Barber 2 1. Yale University 2. Boston University, MBL

2 Species of Study Katsuwonus pelamis Scomberomorus commerson Katsuwonus pelamis

3 °° Katsuwonus pelamis Scomberomorus commerson

4

5 Biogeography of Indo-West Pacific

6 Regional genetic differentiation of Linckia laevigata

7 Collection Sites

8 Objectives 1. Investigate population structure of pelagic fishes in IWP 2. Investigate population dynamics of pelagic fish

9 Hypotheses 1. Fishes not affected by Pleistocene 2. Limited flow to Indian and Pacific 3. K. pelamis different from Scomberomorus

10 Methods Sample Size: 241 –Scomberomorus commerson (76) –Katsuwonus pelamis (165) Extraction Method: Chelex PCR ABI 377 Statistical Analysis: PAUP, Arlequin

18 Population Pairwise FSTs Scomberomorus commerson

19 AMOVA Analysis Scomberomorus commerson

20 Molecular Diversity Indices K. pelamis

21 Molecular Diversity Indices S. commerson

22 Conclusions Panmixia not a phenomenon for S. commerson in IWP Boundaries for pelagic fish Commercial significance
