Comparative analysis of different satellite DNAs in four Mytilus species
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2002-10)[Abstract:] We report the characterization of three satellite DNAs in four species of mussel: Mytilus edulis, Mytilus galloprovincialis, Mytilus trossulus, and Mytilus californianus. The monomers of the Apa I satellite ... -
Comparative cytogenetic analysis of marine “Palaemon” species reveals a X₁X₁X₂X₂/X₁X₂Y sex chromosome system in “Palaemon elegans”
(Springer, 2017-10-12)[Abstract]: The maintenance of species and the promotion of speciation are closely related to chromosomal rearrangements throughout evolution. Decapoda represents the most species-rich order among crustaceans and, despite ... -
Contrasting Wolf Responses to Different Paved Roads and Traffic Volume Levels
(Springer Nature, 2021-07-13)[Abstract]: In some regions of the world, large carnivores, such as wolves, persist in landscapes with dense networks of paved roads. However, beyond the general impacts of roads on wildlife, we still lack information on ... -
Correlation Analysis of High-Throughput Fruit Phenomics and Biochemical Profiles in Native Peppers (Capsicum spp.) from the Primary Center of Diversification
(MDPI, 2021-01-30)[Abstract] The main goal of this work was to investigate the relationship between the fruit morphology and biochemical composition of peppers (Capsicum spp.). For that purpose, one hundred native varieties from the Andean ... -
Cryptic Population Structure Reveals Low Dispersal in Iberian Wolves
(Springer Nature, 2018-09-20)[Abstract]: Highly mobile mammalian carnivores are expected to have the capability to maintain high levels of gene flow across large geographic scales. Nonetheless, surprising levels of genetic structure have been found ... -
Cytogenetic characterisation of the razor shells "Ensis directus" (Conrad, 1843) and "E. minor" (Chenu, 1843) (Mollusca: Bivalvia)
(Springer Nature, 2012-04-26)[Abstract] The European razor shell Ensis minor (Chenu 1843) and the American E. directus (Conrad 1843) have a diploid chromosome number of 38 and remarkable differences in their karyotypes: E. minor has four metacentric, ... -
Cytogenetic characterization of “Donax trunculus” (Bivalvia: Donacidae) by means of karyotyping, fluorochrome banding and fluorescent “in situ” hybridization
(Oxford, 2002-11)[Abstract]: The chromosomes of “Donax trunculus” were analysed by means of Giemsa staining, chromomycin A3 (CA3), DAPI and fluorescent “in situ” hybridization (FISH) with an 18S-5.8S-28S rDNA probe. The diploid number is ... -
Cytogenetics of the razor clam "Solen marginatus" (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Solenidae)
(Karger, 2003)[Abstract:] The razor clam Solen marginatus has a diploid chromosome number of 38. The karyotype consists of one metacentric/submetacentric, three submetacentric/metacentric, five submetacentric, one submetacentric/subtelocentric, ... -
Delimiting Phylogeographic Diversity in the Genomic Era: Application to an Iberian Endemic Frog
(Oxford University Press, 2023-12-02)[Abstract] The rich genetic and phenotypic diversity of species complexes is best recognized through formal taxonomic naming, but one must first assess the evolutionary history of phylogeographic lineages to identify and ... -
Determinants of Eurasian Otter (Lutra Lutra) Diet in a Seasonally Changing Reservoir
(Springer, 2020-03-03)[Abstract] Otter diet in reservoirs is known to experience seasonal changes. We selected a reservoir with a large population of exclusively wintering great cormorants and seasonal changes in stored water volume to test the ... -
Determinants of Mercury Contamination in Viperine Snakes, Natrix Maura, in Western Europe
(Elsevier, 2018-04-03)[Abstract] The effects of Hg contamination are presumably widespread across the components of aquatic ecosystems, but investigations have been mainly focused on freshwater fish, because this biota represents a major source ... -
Development of Microsatellite Markers in the Razor Clam Solen Marginatus (Bivalvia: Solenidae)
(Cambridge University Press, 2007-08)[Abstract] Four microsatellite loci in the razor clam Solen marginatus are described. Loci were isolated from the sequences of intersimple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers and an enriched library. Detailed ... -
Differences in Prevalence of Multiple Paternity in the Spiny Spider Crab Maja Brachydactyla in Two Localities That Differ in Female Fecundity, Fishing Intensity, and Management Measures
(Oxford Academic, 2021-04-29)[Abstract] Many marine species are under high fishing pressure, which can cause alterations in their mating systems and the structure of their populations. The spiny spider crab Maja brachydactyla is a commercial decapod ... -
DNA content, karyotypes, and chromosomal location of 18S-5.8S-28S ribosomal loci in some species of bivalve molluscs from the Pacific Canadian coast
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2000-12)[Abstract]: The DNA content of 10 species of bivalve molluscs from British Columbia coast was determined by image analysis, and the karyotypes of the horse clam “Tressus capax”, the bent-nose macoma “Macoma nasuta”, and ... -
Ecological Consequences of Human Depopulation of Rural Areas on Wildlife: A Unifying Perspective
(Elsevier, 2020-11-10)[Abstract] The depopulation of rural areas by humans (or rural exodus) in southern Europe, and the associated abandonment of cropland, had marked ecological consequences on wildlife, which became evident approximately ... -
Ecological Non-equilibrium and Biological Conservation
(Elsevier, 2023-09-08)[Abstract] How to establish efficient conservation actions and policies for the long-term persistence of ecological systems remains a challenge. Conservation biology was born as a discipline of crisis, targeting the recovery ... -
Enhancing Drought Tolerance and Water Productivity of Diverse Maize Hybrids (Zea mays) Using Exogenously Applied Biostimulants under Varying Irrigation Levels
(MDPI, 2023-05-08)[Abstract] Water deficit is a decisive challenge that tremendously affects maize physiological functions and productivity. Hence, it is crucial to ameliorate its tolerance to drought stress, in particular under abrupt ... -
