Commercial fishing may reduce genetic differentiation in marine fish species

The study reveals that marine fish species exploited by commercial fishing tend to have less genetic differentiation between their populations, which may influence their ability to adapt to environmental changes.

Through the science communication fellowship, our PhD student will create appealing digital content for the public, combining underwater footages and 3D animations.
