Linking genetic and environmental factors in amphibian disease risk
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015-07-01)
A central question in evolutionary biology is how interactions between organisms and the environment shape genetic differentiation. The pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has caused variable population declines ...
Patterns of selection on Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte-binding antigens after the colonization of the New World
(Wiley, 2014)
Pathogens, which have recently colonized a new host species or new populations of the same host, are interesting models for understanding how populations may evolve in response to novel environments. During its colonization ...
Genetic variability in a breeding population of eucalyptus urophylla s.T. Blake
(2002-12-01)
Tree breeding programs have been under tremendous pressure to show results since the demand for the derived products has greatly increased. Molecular markers have been used in breeding programs in an attempt to evaluate ...
Genetic structure and evidence of anthropogenic effects on wild populations of two neotropical catfishes: Baselines for conservation
(2018-01-01)
Genetic diversity and structure of Pseudoplatystoma corruscans and P. reticulatum, large migratory SouthAmerica catfishes, where overfishing and the construction of numerous dams in their feeding and reproducing areas are ...
Quantifying genetic diversity: the starting point for population genetic studies using molecular markers
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2014-10)
Natural populations must keep genetic diversity since it is essential for the long-term survival of species and provides the raw material for all evolutionary changes.The emergence of marker systems has, for the last 40 ...
Evidence for temporal population replacement and the signature of ecological adaptation in a major Neotropical malaria vector in Amazonian Peru
(BioMed Central, 2015)
BACKGROUND: The major Neotropical malaria vector, Anopheles darlingi, was reintroduced into the Iquitos, Loreto, Peru area during the early 1990s, where it displaced other anophelines and caused a major malaria epidemic. ...
A review of microsatellite markers and their application on genetic diversity studies in parrots
(2014)
The ability of a population to adapt to a changing environment depends on its genetic variation. Thus, the study of genetic diversity within and among species or populations is especially important on conservation biology ...
Linking genetic and environmental factors in amphibian disease risk
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2015)
Global genetic variation at nine short tandem repeat loci and implications on forensic genetics
(European Journal of Human Genetics (2003) 11, 39 – 49, 2003-01)
We have studied genetic variation at nine autosomal short tandem repeat loci in 20 globally distributed
human populations defined by geographic and ethnic origins, viz., African, Caucasian, Asian, Native
American and ...
