A retrospective assessment of the accuracy of the paternity inference program cervusMolecular Ecology - Tập 9 Số 6 - Trang 801-808 - 2000
Jon Slate, Tristan Marshall, Josephine M. Pemberton
Abstract cervus is a Windows‐based software package written to infer paternity in natural populations. It offers advantages over exclusionary‐based methods of paternity inference in that multiple nonexcluded males can be statistically distinguished, laboratory typing error is considered and statistical confidence is determined for assigned patern...... hiện toàn bộ
Wolbachia infection complexity among insects in the tropical rice‐field communityMolecular Ecology - Tập 12 Số 4 - Trang 1049-1060 - 2003

Abstract Wolbachia are a group of intracellular bacteria that cause reproductive alterations in their arthropod hosts. Widely discordant host and Wolbachia phylogenies indicate that horizontal transmission of these bacteria among species sometimes occurs. A likely means of horizontal transfer is through the feed...... hiện toàn bộ
Comparative phylogeography reveals the demographic patterns of neotropical ancient mountain speciesMolecular Ecology - Tập 32 Số 12 - Trang 3165-3181 - 2023

AbstractMountains are renowned for their bountiful biodiversity. Explanations on the origin of such abundant life are usually regarded to their orogenic history. However, ancient mountain systems with geological stability also exhibit astounding levels of number of species and endemism, as illustrated by the Brazilian Quartzitic Mountains (BQM) in Eastern South Ame...... hiện toàn bộ
Estimating pairwise relatedness from dominant genetic markersMolecular Ecology - Tập 13 Số 10 - Trang 3169-3178 - 2004
J. Wang
AbstractKnowledge of the genetic relatedness between a pair of individuals is important in many research areas of quantitative genetics, conservation genetics, evolution and ecology. Many estimators have been developed to estimate such pairwise relatedness (r) using codominant markers, such as microsatellites and enzymes. In contrast, onl...... hiện toàn bộ
Differential gene expression during thermal stress and bleaching in the Caribbean coral Montastraea faveolataMolecular Ecology - Tập 17 Số 17 - Trang 3952-3971 - 2008

AbstractThe declining health of coral reefs worldwide is likely to intensify in response to continued anthropogenic disturbance from coastal development, pollution, and climate change. In response to these stresses, reef‐building corals may exhibit bleaching, which marks the breakdown in symbiosis between coral and zooxanthellae. Mass coral bleaching due to elevate...... hiện toàn bộ
Phylogeographical variation of chloroplast DNA in holm oak (Quercus ilex L.)Molecular Ecology - Tập 11 Số 11 - Trang 2327-2336 - 2002
R. Lumaret, C. Mir, Henri-Alexandre Michaud, V. Raynal
AbstractVariation in the lengths of restriction fragments (RFLPs) of the whole chloroplast DNA molecule was studied in 174 populations of Quercus ilex L. sampled over the entire distribution of this evergreen and mainly Mediterranean oak species. By using five endonucleases, 323 distinct fragments were obtained. From the 29 and 17 cpDNA c...... hiện toàn bộ
