AB Investigations of population structuring in wild species are fundamental to completethe bigger picture defining their ecological and biological roles in the marine realm, to estimatetheir recovery capacity triggered by human disturbance and implement more efficient managementstrategies for fishery resources. The Blackspot Seabream (Pagellus bogaraveo, Brünnich 1768) is acommercially valuable deep-water fish highly exploited over past decades. Considering its exploitationstatus, deepening the knowledge of intraspecific variability, genetic diversity, and differentiation usinghigh-performingmolecularmarkers is considered an important step for amore effective stock assessmentand fishery management. With one of the largest efforts conceived of and completed by countries overlooking the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts in recent years, a total of 320 individuals werecollected fromdifferent fishing grounds in theMediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean and analysed using29 microsatellite loci. We applied multiple statistical approaches to investigate the species’ connectivityand population structure across most of its described distribution area. Considering the incompleteknowledge regarding the migratory behaviour of adults, here we suggest the importance of egg andlarval dispersal in sustaining the observed genetic connectivity on such a large geographical scale.
