Genetic bases of thermal adaptation for growth in three populations of European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax)

Puntos clave

• Growth responses vary among seabass populations due to genetic adaptation to thermal environments, emphasizing population-specific strategies.
• Key observations indicate that seabass show distinct thermal adaptation mechanisms, demonstrated by growth metrics in varying habitats.
• Analysis of genetic data from three distinct seabass populations helps illuminate evolutionary responses to climate variability.
• This study highlights the importance of genetic factors in growth adaptation, necessitating further exploration across European seabass habitats.
