Phylogeography of Mabuya maculilabris (Reptilia) from São Tomé Island (Gulf of Guinea) inferred from mtDNA sequences.
The pattern of genetic variation of the lizard Mabuya maculilabris from São Tomé Island (Gulf of Guinea) was investigated using a combination of three mitochondrial DNA gene fragments. Forty-eight haplotypes were recovered among 66 individuals covering the whole island. The genealogy inferred from the most parsimonious network of haplotypes allows us to detect two main and long branches departi...
متن کاملPhylogeography of Drosophila subobscura from North Atlantic islands inferred from mtDNA A+T rich region sequences.
Drosophila subobscura has been used extensively in the past, in numerous studies focused on the colonization history of natural populations (Afonso et al., 1990; Brehm and Krimbas, 1987; Khadem et al., 1998; Krimbas, 1993; Latorre et al., 1992; Pascual et al., 2001; Pinto et al., 1997; Prevosti, 1974; Prevosti et al., 1984). A native Paleartic with circum-Mediterranean distribution, the species...
متن کاملPhylogeography of the false smooth snakes, Macroprotodon (Serpentes, Colubridae): mitochondrial DNA sequences show European populations arrived recently from Northwest Africa.
Mitochondrial DNA (1075 bp: cytochrome b, 300 bp; 12S rRNA, 393 bp; and 16S rRNA, 382 bp) corroborates the monophyly of the genus Macroprotodon and of the species M. mauritanicus, M. abubakeri, and M. brevis. The subspecies M. brevis ibericus is also monophyletic. The mtDNA tree presented here indicates that M. cucullatus consists of at least two separate units and may possibly represent a prim...
متن کاملPhylogeography of Anastrepha obliqua inferred with mtDNA sequencing.
Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart) (Diptera: Tephritidae), the West Indian fruit fly, is a frugivorous pest that occasionally finds its way to commercial growing areas outside its native distribution. It inhabits areas in Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean with occasional infestations having occurred in the southern tier states (California, Florida, and Texas) of the United States....
متن کاملMolecular phylogeny of the humbug damselfishes inferred from mtDNA sequences
The damselfish genus Dascyllus comprises nine species of both largeand small-bodied fishes distributed over the entire Indo-West Pacific. Most members of the genus have polygynous mating systems with protogynous sex change, while others are promiscuous with no sex change. Hypotheses linking presumed phylogenetic relationships with body size, sex change and mating structure have been proposed pr...
