DOI: 10.1002/rra.3180

Abstract: Dams are a conservation threat because they function as barriers to native fish movement; however, they may prevent the spread of invasive species. Invasive bigheaded carps (Hypophthalmichthys spp.) threaten the Great Lakes ecosystem and are… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Evolutionary Applications"

DOI: 10.1111/eva.12863

Abstract: The genetic paradox of biological invasions is complex and multifaceted. In particular, the relative role of disparate propagule sources and genetic adaptation through postintroduction hybridization has remained largely unexplored. To add resolution to this paradox,… read more here.
