Population genetics in microchannels [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
Significance Many microbial populations proliferate in small channels. In such environments, reproducing cells organize in parallel lanes. Reproducing cells shift these lanes, potentially expelling other cells from the channel. In this paper, we combine theory and experiments to understand how these dynamics affects the diversity

Genetic draft, selective interference, and population genetics of rapid adaptation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics Vol. 44: 195-215, 2013, 2013
To learn about the past from a sample of genomic sequences, one needs to understand how evolutionary processes shape genetic diversity. Most population genetic inference is based on frameworks assuming adaptive evolution is rare. But if positive selection operates on many loci simultaneously, as has recently been suggested for many species including ...

Molecular Population Genetics [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 2017
Molecular population genetics aims to explain genetic variation and molecular evolution from population genetics principles. The field was born 50 years ago with the first measures of genetic variation in allozyme loci, continued with the nucleotide ...

Assessment of genotyping markers in the molecular characterization of a population of clinical isolates of Fusarium in Colombia

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2022
Introduction: Fusarium is a very heterogeneous group of fungi, difficult to classify, with a wide range of living styles, acting as saprophytes, parasites of plants, or pathogens for humans and animals.

Chromosomal phase improves aneuploidy detection in non-invasive prenatal testing at low fetal DNA fractions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) to detect fetal aneuploidy by sequencing the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal plasma is being broadly adopted. To detect fetal aneuploidies from maternal plasma, where fetal DNA is mixed with far-larger amounts of ...

Information-Geometric Optimization with Natural Selection

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Evolutionary algorithms, inspired by natural evolution, aim to optimize difficult objective functions without computing derivatives. Here we detail the relationship between classical population genetics of quantitative traits and evolutionary ...

Does Non-Genetic Heterogeneity Facilitate the Development of Genetic Drug Resistance? [PDF]

open access: yesBioEssays, 43: e2100043 (2021), 2021
Non-genetic forms of antimicrobial drug resistance can result from cell-to-cell variability that is not encoded in the genetic material. Data from recent studies also suggest that non-genetic mechanisms can facilitate the development of genetic drug resistance.

Arlequin suite ver 3.5: a new series of programs to perform population genetics analyses under Linux and Windows

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, 2010
We present here a new version of the Arlequin program available under three different forms: a Windows graphical version (Winarl35), a console version of Arlequin (arlecore), and a specific console version to compute summary statistics (arlsumstat).

Diferencias genéticas entre poblaciones de Aedes aegypti de municipios del norte de Colombia, con baja y alta incidencia de dengue

open access: yesBiomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2013
Introducción. Aedes aegypti es el principal vector del dengue en zonas urbanas. A pesar de su importancia epidemiológica, se desconoce la variabilidad genética de las poblaciones del vector en Colombia. Objetivo.
