Impact of Forest Fragmentation and Associated Edge Effects on Tropical Forest Biodiversity in North West Madagascar, Assessed via Ecoacoustics

Animal Conservation, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 249-260, June 2026.
Deforestation in the tropics is a major threat to forest‐specialist animals, many of which are already threatened with extinction. We assessed how forest fragmentation and its associated edge‐effects impact animal biodiversity in Northwest Madagascar using soundscape analysis and acoustic indices.

Mutations in the low density lipoprotein receptor gene of familial hypercholesterolemic patients detected by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and direct sequencing.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1995
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) results from mutations in the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene. We applied denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) to screen for sequence variations in the coding and splice site consensus sequences ...

Changes in the microbiome and metabolome in captive red kangaroos (Osphranter rufus) affected by macropod progressive periodontal disease

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 365-375, June 2026.
Macropod progressive periodontal disease (MPPD) is a severe oral condition frequently observed in captive macropods, particularly red kangaroos (Osphranter rufus), yet its underlying biological features remain poorly understood. In this exploratory descriptive study, we investigated oral and fecal microbiomes and metabolomic profiles in captive red ...

Dynamics of lactic acid bacteria populations in Rioja wines by PCR-DGGE, comparison with culture-dependent methods

, 2013
Lactic acid bacteria populations of red wine samples from industrial fermentations, including two different vinification methods were studied. For this investigation, polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) analysis ...

Insights into aerobic microbial community in the Kamniška Bistrica river sediment with culture-dependent and molecular biology approach

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2014
River systems are exposed to anthropogenic disturbances, including chemical pollution and eutrophication. They may affect a structure and diversity of microbial communities in river sediment.

The Elusive Fraction of Marine Plankton Diversity: Size, Abundance and Taxonomic Composition of 0.2 μm‐Filterable Prokaryotes Across Three Contrasting Coastal Environments

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 12, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The existence of prokaryotes escaping filtration through 0.2‐μm filters has been known for decades. Such ‘filterable’ prokaryotes (hereafter ‘FP’) might include true ultra‐small groups (i.e., ultramicrobacteria), but also cells that miniaturize temporally as a physiological strategy to persist under unfavourable conditions, representing a ...

Comparing Freshwater eDNA With Conventional Survey Methods to Detect Vertebrate Biodiversity in a Malagasy Tropical Rainforest

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This study compares the efficacy of conventional surveys of vertebrate taxa to eDNA metabarcoding of freshwater samples from a tropical rainforest ecosystem in the Makira Forest Protected Area (MFPA), Madagascar. We demonstrate high but taxa‐varying efficacy of eDNA metabarcoding detections, reinforcing its use as a complementary biodiversity survey ...

DGGE-RAPD analysis as a useful tool for cultivar identification [PDF]

, 2016
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis-random amplified polymorphic DNA (DGGE-RAPD) was used to overcome the main drawbacks of RAPD (i.e., the low levels of reproducibility and polymorphism).
