The clarifying role of time series data in the population genetics of HIV.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
HIV can evolve remarkably quickly in response to antiretroviral therapies and the immune system. This evolution stymies treatment effectiveness and prevents the development of an HIV vaccine.

New Microsatellite Markers for the Model Coral Species Stylophora pistillata from Eilat, the Red Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Nineteen microsatellite loci, obtained by the whole genome sequencing approach, were developed and validated for the ‘smooth cauliflower’ coral Stylophora pistillata, a widespread Indo Pacific branching coral species.

Enzymatic processing of castor oil for value-added products [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biotechnology & Biomaterials, 2012
S seeds of Sesamum indicum contain abundant oil, in particular, large amounts of unsaturated fatty acid oleic and linoleic acids. These unsaturated fatty acids lower the cholesterol level in the body. Because of their effects and antioxidant substances, attention has been paid to sesame seeds as health food.

Population genetics of Enterocytozoon bieneusi in captive giant pandas of China

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Most studies on Enterocytozoon bieneusi are conducted based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the rRNA gene, whereas some have examined E. bieneusi population structures.

Haplotypic polymorphisms and forensic applications in Chinese Hunan Han population based on a series of Y-STR loci: a perspective of paternal inheritance

open access: yesAnnals of Human Biology, 2023
Background Hunan, a multinational province in China, possesses more than fifty ethnic groups, such as the Han, Yao, Tujia, Miao, and so on. Aims To evaluate the forensic efficiency of the novel panel and investigate the genetic relationships between ...

Population Growth Combined with Wide Offspring Distributions can Increase Fixation Rate and Reduce Genetic Diversity

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2016
Genetic diversity grows with the population size in most neutral evolution models. Empirical evidence of large populations with limited diversity has been proposed to be due either to genetic bottlenecks or to selection. An alternative explanation is that the limited diversity is a result of rare reproduction events.

Structural and Temporal Variation in Genetic Diversity of European Spring Two-Row Barley Cultivars and Association Mapping of Quantitative Traits

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, 2013
Two hundred sixteen barley ( L.) cultivars were selected to represent the diversity and history of European spring two-row barley breeding and to search for alleles controlling agronomic traits by association genetics.

Hitchhiking to speciation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2013
The modern evolutionary synthesis codified the idea that species exist as distinct entities because intrinsic reproductive barriers prevent them from merging together. Understanding the origin of species therefore requires understanding the evolution and

Fixation of genetic variation and optimization of gene expression: The speed of evolution in isolated lizard populations undergoing Reverse Island Syndrome

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2019
The ecological theory of island biogeography suggests that mainland populations should be more genetically divergent from those on large and distant islands rather than from those on small and close islets. Some island populations do not evolve in a linear way, but the process of divergence occurs more rapidly because they undergo a series of ...
