We present an extensive phylogenetic analysis, based on 293 nuclear loci and 728 individuals representing 237 species of Anastrepha, the largest and most economically important New World genus of Tephritidae. The analysis strongly supports the monophyly of most Anastrepha species groups, also revealing previously unknown relationships among species and

The lack of biometric data on chondrichthyan species has impeded the implementation of management strategies essential for the conservation of sharks and rays captured using different fishing gears in coastal ecosystems. This study aims to assess morphometric relationships (length–weight [LW], length–dorsal length [DL], and length–disc width [DW]) and ...

Structure and genetic diversity in wild and cultivated populations of Zapote mamey (Pouteria sapota, Sapotaceae) from southeastern Mexico: its putative domestication center [PDF]
Tropical fruit trees are an important component of the human diet; however, little is known about their genetic diversity levels. Zapote mamey (Pouteria sapota) is a tree native to southeastern Mexico and Central America, and Mexico is the leading ...

Controlling bovine brucellosis requires reliable diagnostics and effective vaccination strategies. We evaluated the performance of three serological assays—the rose bengal test (RBT), competitive ELISA (cELISA), and agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) with native hapten (NH)+lipopolysaccharide (LPS) antigen—following Brucella abortus S19 vaccination under ...

Spatial Representativeness of MexFlux as a Regional FLUXNET Network
Abstract Environmental observatory networks are fundamental in advancing scientific understanding of biogeochemical processes. FLUXNET is a global network of regional eddy covariance networks that measure ecosystem‐scale exchanges of greenhouse gases (e.g., CO2, CH4, H2O) and energy between the biosphere and the atmosphere.

Use of historical data improves early selection in a public rice breeding program
Abstract Increasing selection accuracy for parental lines in the early stages of a breeding program can significantly shorten the breeding cycle and accelerate genetic gain. Public breeding programs have limited resources, which in many cases implies not having enough funds for genomic selection.
