Phylogeography of a mountain lizard species: An ancient fragmentation process mediated by riverine barriers in the Liolaemus monticola complex (Sauria: Liolaemidae)
(2007)
Liolaemus monticola is a mountain lizard species, with a widespread distribution from central Chile that displays several highly polymorphic chromosomal races. Our study determined the phylogeographic structuring and ...
Invasive Pleurodema thaul from Robinson Crusoe Island: Molecular identification of its geographic origin and comments on the phylogeographic structure of this species in mainland Chile
(2008)
Robinson Crusoe Island, located 670 km west of the coast of central Chile, is characterized by a high number of endemic and introduced species of plants and animals. This island lacks native amphibians or reptiles, but ...
Resolution of the taxonomic status of Chilean and Californian jack mackerels using mitochondrial DNA sequence
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2004)
Phylogeographic reconstructions using mitochondrial DNA sequences from both the control region and the cytochrome b gene demonstrated that two disjunct populations be recognized as Trachurus murphyi and Trachurus symmetricus. ...
Phylogeography of high Andean killifishes Orestias (Teleostei: Cyprinodontidae) in Caquena and Lauca sub-basins of the Altiplano (Chile): mitochondrial and nuclear analysis of an endangered fish
(PeerJ, 2021)
From the early Miocene, the uplift of the Andes Mountains, intense volcanic activity and
the occurrence of successive periods of dryness and humidity would have differentially
influenced the modification of Altiplano ...
Demographic inference and genetic diversity of Octopus mimus (Cephalopoda: Octopodidae) throughout the Humboldt Current System
(Springer, 2018)
Climatic and oceanographic events occurring during the last glacial cycle in the Humboldt Current System (HCS) have left genetic footprints in marine invertebrate populations. The objective of this study was to evaluate ...
Low phylogeographic structure of Rhinella arunco (Anura: Bufonidae), an endemic amphibian from the Chilean Mediterranean hotspot
(Springer, 2013)
Background: The Mediterranean zone of central Chile (30° to 38°S) is one of the 25 diversity hotspots in the world.
However, there are few phylogeographic studies which identify the factors that have influenced ...
Consequences of the last glacial maximum on Nyctelia confusa (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) in Patagonia
(Consequences of the last glacial maximum on Nyctelia confusa (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) in Patagonia, 2016)
The Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has affected the population size and spatial distribution of a number of organisms in southern Patagonia. It has been hypothesized that species were able to persist in isolated refuges, which ...
Inter- and intraspecific phylogeography of small mammals in the Atacama Desert and adjacent areas of northern Chile
(BLACKWELL, 2005-11)
Aim We evaluated the phylogeography of sigmodontine taxa of the genera Phyllotis and Abrothrix at the intra and interspecific level, in the Atacama desert and adjacent Andean and Puna regions of northern Chile. The major ...
Phylogeographic analysis of the 2000-2002 foot-and-mouth disease epidemic in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2016)
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly transmissible disease of hooved livestock. Although FMD has been eradicated from many countries, economic and social consequences of FMD reintroductions are devastating. After ...
Transmission of Foot-and-Mouth Disease SAT2 Viruses at the Wildlife-Livestock Interface of Two Major Transfrontier Conservation Areas in Southern Africa
(Frontiers Media, 2016)
Over a decade ago, foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) re-emerged in Southern Africa specifically in beef exporting countries that had successfully maintained disease-free areas in the past. FMD virus (FMDV) serotype SAT2 has ...
