Abstract Captive rearing in salmon hatcheries can have considerable impacts on both fish phenotype and fitness within a single generation, even in the absence of genetic change. Evidence for hatchery‐induced changes in DNA methylation is becoming abundant, though questions remain on the sex‐specificity of these effects, their persistence until spawning

Distribution of Polymorphic and Non-Polymorphic Microsatellite Repeats in
The results of our bioinformatics analysis have found over 91,000 di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide microsatellites in our survey of 25% of the X. tropicalis genome, suggesting there may be over 360,000 within the entire genome. Within the X.

Rapid microsatellite isolation from a butterfly by de novo transcriptome sequencing: performance and a comparison with AFLP-derived distances. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The isolation of microsatellite markers remains laborious and expensive. For some taxa, such as Lepidoptera, development of microsatellite markers has been particularly difficult, as many markers appear to be located in repetitive DNA and ...

Copy Number Variants and Segmental Duplications Show Different Formation Signatures [PDF]
In addition to variation in terms of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), whole regions ranging from several kilobases up to a megabase in length differ in copy number among individuals. These differences are referred to as Copy Number Variants (CNVs) and extensive mapping of these is underway.

Variable number of tandem repeat markers in the genome sequence of Mycosphaerella fijiensis, the causal agent of black leaf streak disease of banana (Musa spp) [PDF]
. We searched the genome of Mycosphaerella fijiensis for molecular markers that would allow population genetics analysis of this plant pathogen. M. fijiensis, the causal agent of banana leaf streak disease, also known as black Sigatoka, is the most ...

MICROSATELLITE EVOLUTION IN VERTEBRATES: INFERENCE FROM AC DINUCLEOTIDE REPEATS [PDF]
We analyze published data from 592 AC microsatellite loci from 98 species in five vertebrate classes including fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and mammals. We use these data to address nine major questions about microsatellite evolution. First, we find that larger genomes do not have more microsatellite loci and therefore reject the hypothesis that ...

Here, we developed a novel Chinese hamster genetic quality detection system using single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers following this process. To obtain SNP loci, we conducted whole genome sequencing on 24 Chinese hamsters. Then, we employed an SNP loci screening criterion that we set up previously and initially screened 214 SNP loci with wide ...

Abstract Accurate taxonomic identification is foundational for effective species monitoring and management. When visual identifications are infeasible or inaccurate, genetic approaches provide a reliable alternative. However, these approaches are sometimes less viable (e.g., need for near real‐time results, remote locations, funding concerns, molecular
