Expansion of the mangrove species Rhizophora mucronata in the Western Indian Ocean launched contrasting genetic patterns

Abstract Estimates of population structure and gene flow allow exploring the historical and contemporary processes that determine a species’ biogeographic pattern. In mangroves, large-scale genetic studies to estimate gene flow have been conducted predominantly in the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic regio...
