Patterns of reproductive isolation in toads.
PLoS ONE, 2008 Understanding the general features of speciation is an important goal in evolutionary biology, and despite significant progress, several unresolved questions remain.

Integrating paleoecology and genetics of bird populations in two sky island archipelagos
BMC Biology, 2008 Background Genetic tests of paleoecological hypotheses have been rare, partly because recent genetic divergence is difficult to detect and time. According to fossil plant data, continuous woodland in the southwestern USA and northern Mexico became ...

Genetic structure, divergence and admixture of Han Chinese, Japanese and Korean populations
Hereditas, 2018 BackgroundHan Chinese, Japanese and Korean, the three major ethnic groups of East Asia, share many similarities in appearance, language and culture etc., but their genetic relationships, divergence times and subsequent genetic exchanges have not been ...

Genetically Fixed Characters and Evolutionary Divergence [PDF]
American Zoologist, 1970 Data from hybridization permit assessment of relationships of the toads (genus Bufo ) which occur on all continents except Australia and permit a crude estimate of the degree of genetic change with time. The evidence indicates that toads have been very conservative with respect to change.

Genetic divergence between transposable elements
Genetical Research, 1986 SummaryThe probabilities of genetic identity between different members of the same family of transposable elements in a randomly mating host population are determined, under the assumption of statistical equilibrium between neutral mutations, random genetic drift, transposition and unbiased gene conversion. The method allows for variation in numbers of

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010 Background Patterns of spatial variation in discrete phenotypic traits can be used to draw inferences about the adaptive significance of traits and evolutionary processes, especially when compared to patterns of neutral genetic variation.

Genetic divergence of indigenous pummelo genotypes
Research in Agriculture Livestock and Fisheries, 2016 The genetic divergence was studied in33pummelogenotypes using D2 statistics and principal component analysis at Regional Agricultural Research Station, BARI, Akbarpur, Moulvibazar during 2012 to 2014. The genotypes were grouped into 5 clusters and the maximum number of genotypes was included in cluster IV and V and the minimum number in cluster I.

Genetic Divergence in Crop Plants: Driving Forces, Analytical Methods, and Breeding Implications
NG Agricultural SciencesGenetic divergence, defined as the accumulation of genetic differences between populations, holds fundamental importance in plant breeding and is crucial for the development of new and improved crop varieties. The factors that promote genetic divergence

Genetic divergence of tomato ringspot virus
Archives of Virology, 2016 Tomato ringspot virus (ToRSV) has been detected in Chile, causing economically important diseases in a wide range of hosts. A ToRSV isolate was obtained from raspberry cv Heritage (Rasp-CL) showing leaf yellowing and stunting. The complete genome of Rasp-CL was sequenced by deep sequencing.
