Figure 1. Maps of the Brazilian coast. (A) Present time. Different
colors indicate different phylogeographic Regions I-IV. Political states
identified as their official 2-letter code. = mouth of major rivers. =
Vitória-Trindade seamount chain. = Cabo Frio upwelling system. = Cassino
beach, the longest sandy beach in the southern hemisphere. SEC = South
Equatorial Current. (B) Current and past coastline during Pleistocene
glacial maxima with sea level 100 meters lower than present time.
Bathymetry legend corresponds to figure 1B only. Boundary current
according to R. Peterson & Stramma (1991).
Figure 2. Number of molecular-driven marine phylogeography papers
published between 1987 and 2019 that minimally addressed Brazil’s marine
biota.
Figure 3. Percentage of number of molecular-driven marine phylogeography
papers published between 1987 and 2019 that minimally addressed Brazil’s
marine biota according to (A) types of genetic markers (fragment
analysis stands for ddRAD, RAPD, ISSR, AFLP, and RFLP techniques), (B)
taxonomic groups, (C) functional forms and, (D) marine habitat.
Figure 4: Generalized linear model applied of the frequency of putative
barriers to gene flow occurrences for populations of marine species
recorded along the Brazilian coast (in latitudes). Data collected from
articles contained new molecular data published between 1991 and 2019
with sample sites within the Brazilian coast.
Figure 5: Generalized additive model for the frequency of putative
barriers to gene flow occurrences for populations of marine species
sampled along the Brazilian coast. Data collected from phylogeography
papers published between 1991 and 2019. Roman numbers stands for each of
the four phylogeographic regions recognized in this model.
Figure 6: Phylogeographic break frequency at phylogeographic Regions
I-IV identified in the generalized linear model depicted in Figure 5.
The line within the box marks the median. The boundary of the box
indicates the 25th and 75thpercentiles. Vertical line indicate the 10th and
90th percentiles. Whiskers above and below the box
indicate outliers outside the 10th and 90th percentiles. Different
letters above the box indicate statistically significant differences (p
< 0.05).
Figure 7: Generalized additive models for the frequency of putative
barriers to gene flow frequencies for populations of different marine
taxa recorded along the Brazilian coast. Data collected from
phylogeography papers published between 1991 and 2019 with sample sites
within the Brazilian coast. A) Fishes, B) Crustaceans, C) Mollusks and,
D) Cnidarians. Images represents an example of each taxonomic group.
