Because of their high variability, microsatellites are still considered the marker of choice for
studies on parentage and kinship in wild populations. Nevertheless, single nucleotide …

With the goal of contributing to the taxonomy and systematics of the Neotropical cichlid
fishes of the genus Symphysodon, we analyzed 336 individuals from 24 localities …

Evolution of population structure on islands is the result of physical processes linked to
volcanism, orogenic events, changes in sea level, as well as habitat variation. We assessed …

Cross-species amplification of microsatellites is a common procedure to obtain suitable
markers to be used in population genetic studies. Primers designed for one (source) species …

The genome compositions of each individual of the same species are similar but different at
the level of DNA sequences and its encoding capacity (sometimes in terms of what genes …

The threadsail filefish Stephanolepis cirrhifer is a highly commercial fisheries resource in
Korea that suffers intensive anthropogenic pressure across much of its range. For basic …

Microsatellite or short tandem repeats (STRs) represent codominant molecular genetic
markers and are scattered ubiquitously distributed within genomes of all prokaryotic and …

Microsatellites are popular genetic markers in molecular ecology, genetic mapping and
forensics. Unfortunately, despite recent advances, the isolation of de novo polymorphic …

The evolutionary dynamics of the tetra-nucleotide microsatellite locus Spl-106 were
investigated at the repeat and flanking sequences in 137 individuals of 15 Acipenseriform …

Historical interest in the Neotropical cichlids of the genus Symphysodon has generated a
number of studies and taxonomic revisions in both the professional and hobbyist literature …
