Genetic diversity, population structure and historical demography of the two-spined yellowtail stargazer (Uranoscopus cognatus)

Abstract Benthic species, though ecologically important, are vulnerable to genetic loss and population size reduction due to impacts from fishing trawls. An assessment of genetic diversity and population structure is therefore needed to assist in a resource management program. To address this issue,...
