Stepping-stone population structure and widespread clonality of the mesophotic octocoral Swiftia exserta in the Warm Temperate Northwest Atlantic

Nicole C. Pittoors, Luisa Lopera, Samuel A. Vohsen, Matthew P. Galaska, Destiny J. West, Andrea M. Quattrini, Annalisa Bracco, Santiago Herrera

This study uses population genomics and larval dispersal modeling to show that Swiftia exserta relies on clonal propagation within mesophotic banks and episodic larval exchange between them.
