Weak genetic divergence and signals of adaptation obscured by high gene flow in an economically important aquaculture species by Bernarda Calla, Jingwei Song, Neil Thompson

“…Individuals from populations that were separated both geographically and temporally did not show detectable genetic differences, illustrating the consequences of human intervention in the form translocation of animals between farms, hatcheries and natural settings. Fifty-nine significant F ST outlier sites were identified, the majority of which were present in high proportions of the captive population individuals, and which are possibly associated with domestication. …”
