Breeding season of the South American fur seal (Arctocephalus Australis, Otariidae: Carnivora): new data for establishing independent evolutionary histories?
(Universidad de Valparaiso, 2016)
The South American fur seal (SAFS) is distributed from Peru (Pacific Ocean) to Uruguay (Atlantic Ocean). However, there is a section of coastline of about 2,300 km along the Chilean coast where no SAFS are recorded. Based ...
The role of evolutionary integration in the morphological evolution of the skull of caviomorph rodents (Rodentia: Hystricomorpha)
(Springer, 2015-05)
The mammalian cranium is a complex structure composed by three partially independent modules: face, cranial base and cranial vault. At the same time, it interacts with the mandible by sharing the masticatory function. Since ...
Origem evolutiva de unidades regulatórias de eucariotos: quem surgiu primeiro, reguladores ou regulados?
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisBrasilPrograma de Pós-Graduação em BioinformaticaUFMG, 2021-10-06)
High-throughput functional analysis of genes, RNAs and proteins demands new computational
strategies in order to extract relevant regulatory information. In prokaryotes, genes related
to the same biological functions are ...

(Instituto de Oceanología, 2016-08)
The South American fur seal (SAFS) is distributed from Peru (Pacific Ocean) to Uruguay (Atlantic Ocean). However, there is a section of coastline of about 2,300 km along the Chilean coast where no SAFS are recorded. Based ...
The multiple applications of DNA barcodes in avian evolutionary studies
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2016-12)
DNA barcodes of birds are currently available for 41% of known species and for many different geographic areas; therefore, they are a rich data source to answer evolutionary questions. We review studies that have used DNA ...
Biogeographically significant units in conservation: A new integrative concept for conserving ecological and evolutionary processes
(Cambridge University Press, 2019-06)
We combined tools of phylogeography, population genetics and biogeographical interpretation to analyse a group of phylogenetically independent lineages (animals and plants) that coexist within the same geographical region, ...
Speciation in the asexual realm: Is the parthenogenetic weevil Naupactus cervinus a complex of species in statu nascendi?
(Elsevier, 2013-04)
Population genetic theory shows that asexual organisms may evolve into species, which behave as independent evolutionary units. As a result, they form genotypic clusters separated by deep gaps due to geographic isolation ...
Using Different Methods to Access the Difficult Task of Delimiting Species in a Complex Neotropical Hyperdiverse Group
(Public Library Science, 2015-09-02)
The genus Rineloricaria is a Neotropical freshwater fish group with a long and problematic taxonomic history, attributed to the large number of species and the pronounced similarity among them. In the present work, taxonomic ...
Evolution of complex symbiotic relationships in a morphologically derived family of lichen-forming fungi
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2015-12)
- We studied the evolutionary history of the Parmeliaceae (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota), one of the largest families of lichen-forming fungi with complex and variable morphologies, also including several lichenicolous ...
