Species delineation and hybridization in the brown seaweed Ectocarpus complex

We aimed to delinate species and study the speciation process in a group of cryptic species. We used molecular markers, microsatellites and NGS in order to study such process, The results showed a high species diversity, the existence of hybridization and reproductive barriers between some groups.
