🦪Almost forgot.Interested in your local pop of oyster level of inbreeding? All good if you ain't dutch ;)

These large chromosomal inversions house variants potentially shielded from local extirpation following translocations. They provide another layer of information for conservation management of the species.

The populations still show an isolation by distance pattern with 6-7 main clusters, plus some extremely divergent populations in Norway—most likely due to no gene flow and genetic drift. 4/n

We sampled all over the natural range of the species (thanks to many partners). We found a lack of a signal from oyster translocation efforts and some segregating inversions that may be associated with adaptation. 3/n

We looked into the impact of translocations on the few wild populations left. Translocations were numerous and extensive throughout European countries. Even the Romans were moving oyster spat from productive areas in the Adriatic to oyster farms in sheltered lagoons along the Italian coast! 2/n
