Genetic Drift
Abstract
These results support the use of sequence divergence as a criterion for species delineation, but caution against describing poorly sampled species solely on the basis of that criterion.

Genetika (Moskva) (47)5 2011
Abstract
We suggest that C. x ventricosum plants in southern Primorye were formed by hybridization between C. macranthon and C. calceolus x C. shanxiense hybrids. Thus, they differ from plants inhabiting the Urals and West Siberia, which originated by hybridization between C. macranthon and C. calceolus. The...

Abstract
We conduct an in silico analysis of the distribution and abundance of the full complement of 1045 copies in the updated AgamP3 assembly. Chromosomal distribution of Ty3/gypsy elements is inversely related to arm length, with densities being greatest on the X, and greater on the short versus long arm...

Abstract
We collect polymorphism data at over one hundred loci for two closely related Drosophila species with different current effective population sizes (N(e)), Drosophila miranda and Drosophila pseudoobscura, to evaluate the prevalence of adaptive evolution versus genetic drift in molecular evolution. Ut...

Trends in Microbiology (19)1 2011
Abstract
We argue that the dynamics of within-host evolution has implications at the within-host and at the between-host levels. We first show that epidemiologists should consider within-host evolution, notably because it affects the genotype of the pathogen that is transmitted. We then present studies that...

Abstract
We show here that the partial differential equation governing the probability generating function can be used as an alternative to the diffusion equation with none of its drawbacks: it does not involve any approximation, it has well-defined initial and boundary conditions, and its solutions are fini...

Abstract
We calibrate rates of amino acid divergence by using structural information from the full set of crystallized proteins in bacteria. In agreement with previous reports, we show that rates of amino acid evolution correlate negatively with the number of per-amino acid atomic interactions. Calibration o...

Abstract
Adaptation to a new environment (as well as its underlying mechanisms) is one of the most important topics in Evolutionary Biology. Understanding the adaptive process of natural populations to captivity is essential not only in general evolutionary studies but also in conservation programmes. Since...

Abstract
We carried out genome-wide association studies using SNP arrays to identify the genetic elements affecting skin tumor susceptibility and inflammatory response in AIR and Car lines. We found that the phenotypic outcome reflects a specific genetic profile in each mouse line, suggesting that distinct g...

I genes (HLA-A and HLA-B) for the same set of European populations. The integrative approach was focused on D6S265 and D6S2792, according to availability of population databases. F(ST) genetic distances obtained from STRs and from HLA loci were very similar, thereby describing a comparable pattern o...

Genetics Research (92)4 2010
Abstract
Analysis of the temporal variation in allele frequencies is useful for studying microevolutionary processes. However, many statistical methods routinely used to test temporal changes in allele frequencies fail to establish a proper hypothesis or have theoretical or practical limitations. Here, a Bay...

Abstract
We present a comparative analysis of the effects of N(e) and mating system on genome size evolution in seed plants. The dataset includes 205 species with monoploid genome size estimates (corrected for recent polyploidy) ranging from 2Cx = 0.3 to 65.9 pg. The raw data exhibited a strong positive rela...

Abstract
Human influenza A viruses are classic examples of antigenically variable pathogens that have a seemingly endless capacity to evade the host's immune response. The viral hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) proteins are the main targets of our antibody response to combat infections. HA and NA co...

We derive explicit Mendelian models (in which the genetic architecture relies on one or two large-effect loci), and compare them with classical polygenic models. With simulations, we show that the models are accurate and powerful enough to provide useful estimates from realistic experimental designs...
