DnaSP version 3: an integrated program for molecular population genetics and molecular evolution analysis

open access: yesBioinform., 1999
UNLABELLED DnaSP is a Windows integrated software package for the analysis of the DNA polymorphism from nucleotide sequence data. DnaSP version 3 incorporates several methods for estimating the amount and pattern of DNA polymorphism and divergence, and ...

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

The evolutionary history of LysM-RLKs (LYKs/LYRs) in wild tomatoes

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background The LysM receptor-like kinases (LysM-RLKs) are important to both plant defense and symbiosis. Previous studies described three clades of LysM-RLKs: LysM-I/LYKs (10+ exons per gene and containing conserved kinase residues), LysM-II/LYRs (1–5 ...

The population genetics of evolutionary rescue. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Evolutionary rescue occurs when a population that is threatened with extinction by an environmental change adapts to the change sufficiently rapidly to survive. Here we extend the mathematical theory of evolutionary rescue.

The population genetics of parasitic nematodes of wild animals

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Parasitic nematodes are highly diverse and common, infecting virtually all animal species, and the importance of their roles in natural ecosystems is increasingly becoming apparent.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Exploring the effects of ecological parameters on the spatial structure of genetic tree sequences

open access: yesPeer Community Journal
Geographic space is a fundamental dimension of evolutionary change, determining how individuals disperse and interact with each other. Consequently, space has an important influence on the structure of genealogies and the distribution of genetic variants

In silico characterization of coding and non-coding SNPs of the androgen receptor gene

open access: yesInformatics in Medicine Unlocked, 2021
The Androgen Receptor (AR), an important ligand-dependent nuclear transcription factor, encoded by the AR gene, functions in regulating the cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis pathways. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of AR have

gPGA: GPU Accelerated Population Genetics Analyses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The isolation with migration (IM) model is important for studies in population genetics and phylogeography. IM program applies the IM model to genetic data drawn from a pair of closely related populations or species based on Markov chain Monte Carlo ...
