title: The Intertwined Effects of Hydrographic Barriers, Palaeoclimate and Life History on Genetic Structure of Marine Populations: A Case Study of Two Marine Invertebrates
abstract: Marine organisms with pelagic planktonic larval stages have high dispersal potential, yet their ranges are restricted by present and historical geographic and oceanographic features. Hydrogeographic features, such as straits and water current patterns, as well as paleoclimate can affect population connectivity, genetic differentiation, and ultimately speciation, but species distributions are also affected by life history characteristics. This study evaluates the effect of the Turkish Straits Sys
