▪ Abstract A moment estimator of θ, the coancestry coefficient for alleles within a population,
was described by Weir & Cockerham in 1984 and is still widely cited. The estimate is used …

The application of molecular systematics to the anisakid nematodes of the genera Anisakis,
Pseudoterranova and Contracaecum, parasites of aquatic organisms, over the last two …

The geological history of the Mediterranean Sea, its hydrography and connection with the
Atlantic Ocean have been well documented. Despite a wealth of historical and …

Many marine organisms are sedentary as adults and are redistributed between generations
by the oceanic transport of planktonic larvae. In order to assess interactions among …

Molecular variation of the lagoon cockle Cerastoderma glaucum (Poiret, 1789) was
