Fitness and microsatellite diversity estimates were not correlated in two outbred anuran populations

Evaluation of Genetic Diversity in Japanese and English White Quail Populations Using Microsatellite Markers

The Japanese and English White quails are widespread strains and belongs to the Galliformes order, Phasianidae family, Coturnix genus  and Japonica species. These birds are likely to be well-adapted to the hard conditions and resistance to diseases as it has attained economic importance as an agricultural species. In the current study, the genetic variation of Japanese and English White  quail ...

Fluctuating asymmetry and fitness correlations in two Engraulis encrasicolus populations.

Correlations among several measures of fluctuating asymmetry (FA) and fitness-related variables were assessed in two populations of the European anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus with fast growth (Aegean Sea) and slow growth (Ionian Sea), respectively. FA levels were borderline significantly higher in the Ionian than in the Aegean for some variables. Variation in otolith shape (deviation from popu...

Parentage Tests in Khuzestan Buffaloes Populations Using Three Microsatellite Markers

Pedigree information and phenotypic records are the key features in animal genetics and breeding. Otherwise best methods for genetic evaluation and estimation of parameters will be tending to no correct results. This study was aimed to investigate and verify pedigree relations among 76 individuals who were genotyped for 3 fluorescent labeled microsatellite markers picked up from FAO-ISAG joint ...
