Uncovering population structure in the Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti) along the Pacific coast at South America.

Uncovering population structure in the Humboldt penguin (Spheniscus humboldti) along the Pacific coast at South America.

The upwelling hypothesis has been proposed to explain reduced or lack of population structure in seabird species specialized in food resources available at cold-water upwellings. However, population genetic structure may be challenging to detect in species with large population sizes, since variatio...
