An indication of the importance of stickleback to research can be seen just by the number of scholarly articles being published. Google Scholar lists over 330 articles referring specifically to the Texada Island stickleback species pairs and over 23,000 for sticklebacks in general.
Dr. Dolph Schluter of the University of British Columbia Zoology Department and Biodiversity Research Centre is one of the major researchers for Stickleback Species Pairs in British Columbia.
