Cytogenetic and molecular characterization of lacertid lizard species from the Iberian Peninsula

Rojo Oróns, Verónica (2015)

[Abstract] Reptiles, with their great diversity of sex-determining systems, have long been regarded as a model group for studying the evolution of sex determination and sex chromosomes. They also hold a key phylogenetic ...
Cytogenetic characterisation of the razor shells "Ensis directus" (Conrad, 1843) and "E. minor" (Chenu, 1843) (Mollusca: Bivalvia)

González-Tizón, Ana M.; Rojo Oróns, Verónica; Vierna Fernández, Joaquín; Jensen, K. Thomas; Egea, Emilie; Martínez-Lage, Andrés (Springer Nature, 2012-04-26)
