A GIS-supported Multidisciplinary Database for the Management of UNESCO Global Geoparks: the Courel Mountains Geopark (Spain)
(Springer Nature, 2022-03-18)[Abstract] The management of a UNESCO Global Geopark (UGGp) requires a vast wealth of miscellaneous scientific knowledge that can be successfully organised using a Geographical Information System (GIS). This paper presents ... -
A New Gall Midge Species (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) as a Potential Candidate for Biological Control of the Invasive Plant Cortaderia Selloana (Poaceae)
(Springer, 2020-09-15)[Abstract] A gall midge (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) is reported here for the first time from spikelets of Cortaderia selloana, a prominent alien invasive grass species in southern Europe. The insect is described as a new genus ... -
A Test of the Substitution–Habitat Hypothesis in Amphibians
(Wiley, 2018-05-16)[Abstract] Most examples that support the substitution-habitat hypothesis (human-made habitats act as substitutes of original habitat) deal with birds and mammals. We tested this hypothesis in 14 amphibians by using ... -
Accessing transcriptomic data for ecologically important genes in the goose barnacle ("Pollicipes pollicipes"), with particular focus on cement proteins
(Elsevier, 2014-03-04)[Abstract] In this study 4310 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were used to identify potentially useful transcripts for future studies in the gooseneck barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes (Gmelin, 1789). 119 ESTs were obtained ... -
Alternated Selection Mechanisms Maintain Adaptive Diversity in Different Demographic Scenarios of a Large Carnivore
(BioMed Central, 2019-04-11)[Abstract]: Background: Different population trajectories are expected to impact the signature of neutral and adaptive processes at multiple levels, challenging the assessment of the relative roles of different microevolutionary ... -
Analysis of ITS1 and ITS2 sequences in "Ensis" razor shells: suitability as molecular markers at the population and species levels, and evolution of these ribosomal DNA spacers
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2010-01)[Abstract] Internal transcribed spacer 1 and 2 (ITS1 and ITS2) sequences were analysed in Ensis razor shells (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Pharidae). We aimed to (1) test ITS1 and ITS2 as molecular markers at the population level ... -
Anomalía pigmentaria de Vipera seoanei en la costa de Galicia. Primer caso de hipomelanismo en esta especie
(Asociación Herpetológica Española, 2021-11-16)[Resumen]: El texto analiza las anomalías pigmentarias en víboras europeas, centrándose en el primer caso documentado de hipomelanismo en Vipera seoanei, observado en Galicia. A diferencia de otras especies como Vipera ... -
Assessing Drought Tolerance of Newly Developed Tissue-Cultured Canola Genotypes under Varying Irrigation Regimes
(MDPI, 2023-03-13)[Abstract] Drought is a major abiotic stress that greatly affects canola growth, production, and quality. Moreover, water scarcity is projected to be more severe and frequent as a result of climate change, in particular ... -
Assessing Rensch’s Rule in a Newt: Roles of Primary Productivity and Conspecific Density in Interpopulation Variation of Sexual Size Dimorphism
(Wiley, 2019-08-28)[Abstract] Aim: Major efforts have been devoted to understanding the geographic pattern of sexual size dimorphism (SSD). Rensch's rule posits that SSD increases with body size in male-biased SSD species and decreases with ... -
Birth-and-death evolution with strong purifying selection in the histone H1 multigene family and the origin of "orphon" H1 genes
(Oxford University Press, 2004-10)[Abstract:] Histones are small basic nuclear proteins with critical structural and functional roles in eukaryotic genomes. The H1 multigene family constitutes a very interesting histone class gathering the greatest number ... -
Census and Contemporary Effective Population Size of Two Populations of the Protected Spanish Moon Moth (Graellsia Isabellae)
(Wiley, 2019-03-02)[Abstract] 1. Graellsia isabellae is a protected lepidopteran both in France and Spain; however, there has been considerable debate over its conservation status. Recent literature emphasised the need of monitoring population ... -
Characterization of different chromatin types in Mytilus galloprovincialis L. after C-banding, fluorochrome and restriction endonuclease treatments
(Nature, 1994-03-01)[Abstract] In this study, we have carried out the cytogenetical characterization of “Mytilus galloprovincialis” L. (2n = 28) using conventional staining and banding techniques such as fluorochromes and restriction endonucleases ... -
Chromosomal markers in three species of the genus Mytilus (Mollusca: Bivalvia)
(Nature, 1995-04-01)[Abstract] The analysis of C-banding, NOR and fluorochrome staining was carried out in three species of European mussel, "Mytilus edulis", "M. galloprovincialis" and "M. trossulus". The results obtained allow us to detect ... -
Chromosome differences between European mussel populations (genus “Mytilus”)
(Taylor & Francis, 1996)[Abstract]: We have analysed different populations of European mussels belonging to genus “Mytilus” in order to clarify the karyotype complements of these three species (“M. edulis”, “M. galloprovincialis” and “M. trossulus”). ... -
Common evolutionary origin and birth-and-death process in the replication-independent histone H1 isoforms from vertebrate and invertebrate genomes
(Springer Nature, 2005-09)[Abstract]The H1 histone multigene family shows the greatest diversity of isoforms among the five histone gene families, including replication-dependent (RD) and replication-independent (RI) genes, according to their ... -
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
