| permanent genetic resources added to molecular ecology resources database 1 april 2010 - 31 may 2010. | this article documents the addition of 396 microsatellite marker loci to the molecular ecology resources database. loci were developed for the following species: anthocidaris crassispina, aphis glycines, argyrosomus regius, astrocaryum sciophilum, dasypus novemcinctus, delomys sublineatus, dermatemys mawii, fundulus heteroclitus, homalaspis plana, jumellea rossii, khaya senegalensis, mugil cephalus, neoceratitis cyanescens, phalacrocorax aristotelis, phytophthora infestans, piper cordulatum, pte ... | 2010 | 21565124 |
| the helminth community of the skink chalcides sexlineatus from gran canaria (canary islands). | a survey of the gastrointestinal helminth communities of a population of chalcides sexlineatus steindachner, a small skink endemic to gran canaria island (canary archipelago, spain), was conducted to determine the prevalence, abundance and species diversity of intestinal parasites in these reptiles. only three parasite species were found, one cestode, oochoristica agamae baylis, 1919 and two nematodes, parapharyngodon micipsae (seurat, 1917) and pharyngodonidae gen. sp. helminth infracommunities ... | 2012 | 22555048 |
| the dynamics of genetic and morphological variation on volcanic islands. | oceanic archipelagos of volcanic origin have been important in the study of evolution because they provide repeated natural experiments allowing rigorous tests of evolutionary hypotheses. ongoing volcanism on these islands may, however, affect the evolutionary diversification of species. analysis of population structure and phylogeographic patterns in island populations can provide insight into evolutionary dynamics on volcanic islands. we analysed genetic and morphological variation in the geck ... | 2005 | 15870037 |
| questioning the proverb 'more haste, less speed': classic versus metabarcoding approaches for the diet study of a remote island endemic gecko. | dietary studies can reveal valuable information on how species exploit their habitats and are of particular importance for insular endemics conservation as these species present higher risk of extinction. reptiles are often neglected in island systems, principally the ones inhabiting remote areas, therefore little is known on their ecological networks. the selvagens gecko tarentola (boettgeri) bischoffi, endemic to the remote and integral reserve of selvagens archipelago, is classified as vulner ... | 2020 | 31915567 |
