Gene and species trees of a Neotropical group of treefrogs: Genetic diversification in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and the origin of a polyploid species
(Academic Press Inc. Elsevier B.V., 2010-12-01)
The Neotropical Phyllomedusa burmeisteri treefrog group includes four diploid (P. bahiana, P. burmeisteri, P. distincta and P. iheringii) and one tetraploid (P. tetraploidea) forms. Here we use mitochondrial and nuclear ...
Analysis of Schistosoma mansoni genes shared with Deuterostomia and with possible roles in host interactions
(2007-11)
Abstract
Background:
Schistosoma mansoni is a blood helminth parasite that causes schistosomiasis, a disease that affects 200 ...
Variation in mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene in Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) from Argentina
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-05-19)
Here, we examine the genetic diversity in the agricultural pest Nezara viridula (Linnaeus,) from populations of Argentina using mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene sequences. The DNA sequence comparisons ...
Genetic variability, phylogenetic relationships and gene flow in Triatoma infestans dark morphs from the Argentinean Chaco
(Elsevier Science, 2011-07)
The recent discovery of sylvatic populations of Triatoma infestans outside the Andean Valleys of Bolivia prompted an evolutionary question about the putative ancestral area of origin and dispersal of the species, and an ...
Proneural gene requirement for hair cell differentiation in the zebrafish lateral line
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2006-07-15)
The lateral line system comprises an array of mechanosensory organs, the neuromasts, distributed over the body surface. Each neuromast consists of a patch of mechanosensory hair cells surrounded by support cells. We show ...
Evidências de mudanças estruturais proteicas em transições macroevolutivas
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2017-02-17)
Proteins are linear polymers of amino acids involved in a huge range of different structures and functions within the cell. Its versatility is related to the diversity and ordering of residues found in its side chains. The ...
Utility of genetic variation in coat color genes to distinguish wild, domestic and hybrid South American camelids for forensic and judicial applications
(Elsevier, 2020)
A molecular genetic protocol for distinguishing pure and hybrid South American camelids was developed to provide strong, quantifiable, and unbiased species identification. We detail the application of the approach in the ...
