Linkage disequilibrium mapping of the bolting gene in sea beet using AFLP markersGenetical Research - Tập 77 Số 1 - Trang 61-66 - 2001
Mats Hansen, Thomas Kraft, SARA GANESTAM, Torbjörn Säll, Nils‐Otto Nilsson
The possibility of using linkage disequilibrium mapping in natural plant
populations was assessed. In studying linkage disequilibrium among 137 mapped
AFLP markers in four populations of sea beet (Beta vulgaris ssp. maritima (L.)
Arcang.) it was shown that tightly linked loci could be detected by screening
for associations. It was hypothesized that the short distances spanned by
linkage disequilib... hiện toàn bộ
A world-wide survey of genetic variation in the yellow fever mosquito,Aedes aegyptiGenetical Research - Tập 34 Số 3 - Trang 215-229 - 1979
Walter J. Tabachnick, Jeffrey R. Powell
SUMMARYThirty-four populations ofAedes aegyptirepresenting the world-wide
distribution of the species, were analysed for genetic variation at 19–22
isozyme loci. The species has an average expected heterozygosity of 0·129±0·045
based on 19 loci analysed in every population. Based on this genetic
information, two major groups can be defined: the dark, often sylvan, African
subspeciesformosusand the... hiện toàn bộ
The use ofp-fluorophenylalanine with ‘master strains’ ofAspergillus nidulansfor assigning genes to linkage groupsGenetical Research - Tập 6 Số 3 - Trang 352-359 - 1965
Kevin K. McCully, Emma Forbes
Four ‘master’ strains ofAspergillus nidulans, three of which are marked on each
of the eight chromosomes, are used for assigning genes of unknown location to
linkage groups. In this technique a heterozygous diploid is synthesized between
one ‘master’ strain and a strain carrying an unlocated marker. This diploid is
haploidized by growth onp-fluorophenylalanine, and the haploids thus obtained
are c... hiện toàn bộ
Mitotic non-conformity inAspergillus: successive and transposable genetic changesGenetical Research - Tập 16 Số 1 - Trang 79-93 - 1970
João Lúcio de Azevedo, J. A. Roper
SUMMARYStrains ofAspergillus nidulanswith, a duplicate chromosome segment are
mitotically unstable; in addition to phenotypically improved variants, arising
following deletions in either duplicate segment, they give morphologically
deteriorated types, some with, enhanced stability. In one isolate, deterioration
and increased instability were determined by mutation in a duplicate segment; a
more st... hiện toàn bộ
The genetics of tasting in mice: V. Glycine and cycloheximideGenetical Research - Tập 52 Số 3 - Trang 207-212 - 1988
Ian E. Lush, Gail Holland
SummaryGlycine tastes both bitter and sweet to mice but there are differences
between strains in their ability to detect each taste. With respect to the
bitter taste, fifteen strains were classified as tasters and twelve strains as
non-tasters. The difference is due to a single gene, Glb (glycine bitterness).
Cycloheximide tastes bitter to all mice at a concentration of 8 μM, but strain
difference... hiện toàn bộ
Non-stringent tissue-source requirements for BMP ligand expression in regulation of body size inCaenorhabditis elegansGenetical Research - Tập 93 Số 6 - Trang 427-432 - 2011
Cathy Savage‐Dunn, Ling Yu, KWESI GILL, Muhammad Uzair Awan, Thilini R. Fernando
SummaryInCaenorhabditis elegans, the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)-related
ligand Dpp- and BMP-like-1 (DBL-1) regulates body size by promoting the larval
and adult growth of the large epidermal syncytium hyp7 without affecting cell
division. This system provides an excellent model for dissecting the
growth-promoting activities of BMP ligands, since in this context the growth and
differentiation... hiện toàn bộ
Polymorphism in a varied environment: how robust are the models?Genetical Research - Tập 35 Số 1 - Trang 45-57 - 1980
J. Maynard Smith, R. Hoekstra
SUMMARYThis paper shows that a number of models of the maintenance of
polymorphism in a heterogeneous environment, including those of Levene and
Dempster, can be derived from a simple assumption about the way in which the
numbers and kinds of individuals emerging from a niche depend on the number of
eggs laid in it. It is shown that for such models, unless selective advantages
per locus are large,... hiện toàn bộ
