Article Synopsis
- The study examines genetic variation in gafftopsail catfish from the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, using genomic data to identify both neutral and adaptive patterns.
- Four distinct genetic groups were identified: the U.S. Atlantic, northeastern Gulf, northwestern Gulf, and southern Gulf.
- Results indicate a recent decline in effective population size in the Atlantic region, likely linked to a population reduction driven by an epizootic, highlighting the role of habitat and life stages in shaping genetic structure.

The expansion of black mangrove Avicennia germinans into historically smooth cordgrass Spartina alterniflora-dominated marshes with warming temperatures heralds the migration of the marsh-mangrove ecotone northward in the northern Gulf of Mexico. With this shift, A. germinans is expected to outcompete S.
