Longevity and environmental temperature modulate mitochondrial DNA evolution in fishes

Sabrina Le Cam, Mathieu Mortz, Alexis Gagnier-Michel…·Pierre Ulrich Blier

This study examines the relationship between longevity, environmental temperature, and mitochondrial DNA evolution in fish, finding no correlation between longevity and temperature but confirming a negative link between substitution rates and longevity for mtPCGs.

Genetic structure of sugar kelp in the St. Lawrence Estuary and Gulf (Quebec, Canada)

Marie Treillefort, Sabrina Le Cam, Myriam Valéro…·France Dufresne

The paper assesses the genetic structure of sugar kelp in the St. Lawrence Estuary and Gulf, finding strong genetic structuring with genomic data but not microsatellites, and no large-scale genetic changes in wild populations due to aquaculture practices.
