Global isolation by distance despite strong regional phylogeography in a small metazoan (2007)
Journal Article
Mills, S., Lunt, D. H., & Gómez, A. (2007). Global isolation by distance despite strong regional phylogeography in a small metazoan. BMC evolutionary biology, 7, Article 225. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2148-7-225

Background: Small vagile eukaryotic organisms, which comprise a large proportion of the Earth's biodiversity, have traditionally been thought to lack the extent of population structuring and geographic speciation observed in larger taxa. Here we inve... Read More about Global isolation by distance despite strong regional phylogeography in a small metazoan.

Recent evolution of alternative reproductive modes in the 'living fossil' Triops cancriformis (2007)
Journal Article
Zierold, T., Haenfling, B., & Gomez, A. (2007). Recent evolution of alternative reproductive modes in the 'living fossil' Triops cancriformis. BMC evolutionary biology, 7(161), 1-12. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2148-7-161

Background: The Notostraca is a small but ancient crustacean order with a contrasting combination of a conservative morphology and a wide range of reproductive modes. The tadpole shrimp Triops cancriformis, includes bisexual - the putatively ancestra... Read More about Recent evolution of alternative reproductive modes in the 'living fossil' Triops cancriformis.

Persistent genetic signatures of colonization in Brachionus manjavacas rotifers in the Iberian Peninsula (2007)
Journal Article
Gomez, A., Montero-Pau, J., Lunt, D. H., Serra, M., & Campillo, S. (2007). Persistent genetic signatures of colonization in Brachionus manjavacas rotifers in the Iberian Peninsula. Molecular ecology, 16(15), 3228-3240. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-294X.2007.03372.x

Recent phylogeographical assessments have consistently shown that continental zooplankton display high levels of population subdivision, despite the high dispersal capacity of their diapausing propagules. As such, there is an apparent paradox between... Read More about Persistent genetic signatures of colonization in Brachionus manjavacas rotifers in the Iberian Peninsula.

Mitochondrial DNA phylogeography and mating compatibility reveal marked genetic structuring and speciation in the NE Atlantic bryozoan Celleporella hyalina (2007)
Journal Article
Gomez, A., Hughes, R. N., Wright, P. J., Carvalho, G. R., & Lunt, D. H. (2007). Mitochondrial DNA phylogeography and mating compatibility reveal marked genetic structuring and speciation in the NE Atlantic bryozoan Celleporella hyalina. Molecular ecology, 16(10), 2173-2188. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-294X.2007.03308.x

The marine bryozoan Celleporella hyalina is a species complex composed of many highly divergent and mostly allopatric genetic lineages that are reproductively isolated but share a remarkably similar morphology. One such lineage commonly encrusts macr...

Mating trials validate the use of DNA barcoding to reveal cryptic speciation of a marine bryozoan taxon (2007)
Journal Article
Gómez, A., Wright, P. J., Lunt, D. H., Cancino, J. M., Carvalho, G. R., & Hughes, R. N. (2007). Mating trials validate the use of DNA barcoding to reveal cryptic speciation of a marine bryozoan taxon. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 274(1607), 199-207. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2006.3718

Despite increasing threats to the marine environment, only a fraction of the biodiversity of the oceans has been described, owing in part to the widespread occurrence of cryptic species. DNA-based barcoding through screening of an orthologous referen... Read More about Mating trials validate the use of DNA barcoding to reveal cryptic speciation of a marine bryozoan taxon.
