Worldwide, rivers are extensively fragmented by anthropogenic structures, reducing longitudinal connectivity, inhibiting migration and leading to severe declines in many fish populations, especially for diadromous species. However, few studies have d... Read More about Catchment-wide interactive effects of anthropogenic structures and river levels on fish spawning migrations.

Seascape genomics reveals limited dispersal and suggests spatially varying selection among European populations of sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) (2023)
Journal Article
Baltazar-Soares, M., Britton, J. R., Pinder, A., Harrison, A. J., Nunn, A. D., Quintella, B. R., …Andreou, D. (2023).

Sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus is an anadromous and semelparous fish without homing behaviors. Despite being a freshwater, free-living organism for a large part of their life cycle, its adulthood is spent as a parasite of marine vertebrates. In their...
