Spatially biased collections and the failure to cover all wild genetic clusters in plant populations under ex situ conservation [PDF]
Plant DiversitySuccessful ex situ conservation of plant populations requires a high degree of genetic representativeness. However, spatially biased sampling in ex situ conservation efforts may fail to capture all wild genetic clusters for species with range-wide ...

Genome-wide analysis of the cellulose toolbox of Primulina eburnea, a calcium-rich vegetable
BMC Plant Biology, 2023 Background Human-guided crop domestication has lasted for more than 10,000 years. In terms of the domestication and breeding of vegetables, cellulose content in edible tissues is one of the most important traits. Primulina eburnea is a recently developed

THE ‘PREVALENCE’ OF ADENOVIRUS IN NON-HUMAN PRIMATE POPULATIONS IN SELANGOR AND KUALA LUMPUR
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023 Intro: Adenovirus has often been used as a health risk indicator due to its ubiquitous presence in the environment, humans and wildlife. However, a wide range of prevalence values have been reported.

Divergent functional traits in three sympatric Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus morphs are not coupled with the age of the lineage divergence [PDF]
, 2016 Three genetically discrete morphs of Arctic charr in Loch Rannoch, Scotland originated from a recent divergence within the lake (in situ) (piscivore and benthivore morphs) and from secondary contact of two older lineages (ex situ; a planktivore–piscivore/

Evolutionary pattern of Macaca fascicularis in Southeast Asia inferred using Y-chromosomal gene
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Background We analyzed a combined segment (2032-bp) of the sex-determining region and the testis-specific protein of the Y-chromosome (Y-DNA) gene to clarify the gene flow and phylogenetic relationships of the long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis ...
