Conservation genetics is a well?established and essential scientific field in the toolkit of conservation planning, management, decision?making. Within its framework, phylogeography allows definition strategies, especially threatened endemic plants. Gypsum salt-rich outcrops constitute model example an edaphic island-like habitat contain rare species, many them threatened. This case Jacobaea au...

A simulation study was used to examine the consequences of karyotypic rearrangements on molecular genetic map construction. Two groups of 50 datasets were created for F2 populations segregating for a reciprocal translocation of chromosomal segments or a reciprocal translocation and inversion. Multiple attempts were made to construct maps for each dataset using MapMaker/EXP. As expected, the mar...

A deterministic computer model was built to e\'aluate \'arious release strategies of sex-linked translocation homozygotes for the purpose of replacement of a local population of Aedes aegypti (L.) in a Kenyan village. The model incorporated overlapping generations, density-dependent larval survivorship, mating competiveness of males for females, immigration of wild types, and the release of adu...

Tomato leaf curl Bangalore virus (ToLCBV) (Geminiviridae) causes the economically important tomato disease (ToLCVD), and is transmitted by whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Aleyrodidae: Hemiptera). Successful transmission of insect requires safe translocation through different barriers inside vector. During translocation, viral coat protein will interact with many whitefly proteins, while a...

The pleckstrin homology (PH) domains of a number of proteins have been found to interact in vitro with inositol phospholipids; recent experiments show that these interactions may be important in directing protein translocation to specific parts of the cell following stimulus-induced lipid breakdown or synthesis.

Genes that function in translocation of secretory protein precursors into the ER have been identified by a genetic selection for mutant yeast cells that fail to translocate a signal peptide-cytosolic enzyme hybrid protein. The new mutants, sec62 and sec63, are thermosensitive for growth and accumulate a variety of soluble secretory and vacuolar precursors whose electrophoretic mobilities coinci...
