characterization and isolation of novel microsatellites from the drosophila dunni subgroup.	we have isolated and characterized 77 novel microsatellites from two species, drosophila dunni and drosophila nigrodunni, which are closely related caribbean-island endemics from the drosophila cardini species group. these species are very distantly related to all other drosophila from which microsatellites have previously been characterized. we find that the average length of microsatellites isolated in these species is quite small, with an overall mean length of 9.8 repeat units for dinucleoti ...	2002	12688656
demographic structure and evolutionary history of drosophila ornatifrons (diptera, drosophilidae) from atlantic forest of southern brazil.	drosoph1la ornatifrons of the guarani group (diptera: drosophilidae) is found mainly in humid areas of the atlantic forest biome, especially in the southern region of brazil. historical and contemporary fragmentation events influenced species diversity and distribution in this biome, although the role of paleoclimatic and paleogeographic events remain to be verified. the objective of the present study was to evaluate the demographic structure of d. ornatifrons from collection sites that are remn ...	2015	25826062
