Ancient DNA reveals historical demographic decline and genetic erosion in the Atlantic bluefin tuna

Adam Jon Andrews, E. F. Eriksen, Bastiaan Star, Kim Præbel, Antonio Di Natale, Estrella Malca, Glenn Zapfe, Vedat Onar, Veronica Aniceti, Gabriele Carenti, Gaël Piquès, Svein Vatsvåg Nielsen, Per Persson, Federica Piattoni, Francesco Fontani, , Alessia Cariani

This study uses ancient DNA to show that Atlantic bluefin tuna experienced a demographic decline and genetic bottleneck starting in 1900, with lower genetic diversity in modern compared to historical populations.

Five millennia of mitochondrial introgression in Atlantic bluefin tuna identified using ancient DNA

Emma Falkeid Eriksen, Adam Jon Andrews, Svein Vatsvåg Nielsen, Per Persson, Estrella Malca, Vedat Onar, Veronica Aniceti, Gaël Piquès, Federica Piattoni, Francesco Fontani, Martin Wiech, Keno Ferter, Oliver Kersten, Giada Ferrari, Alessia Cariani, , Bastiaan Star

This study uses ancient DNA to show that mitochondrial introgression in Atlantic bluefin tuna has persisted for five millennia without significant anthropogenic impact.
