Gene Trees and Organismal Histories: a Phylogenetic Approach to Population Biology.
A "gene tree" is the phylogeny of alleles or haplotypes for any specified stretch of DNA. Gene trees are components of population trees or species trees; their analysis entails a shift in perspective from many of the familiar models and concepts of population genetics, which typically deal with frequencies of phylogenetically unordered alleles. Molecular surveys of haplotype diversity in mitoch...
متن کاملOrganismal stress, telomeres and life histories.
Most organisms, including ourselves, are exposed to environmental stressors at various points during life, and responses to such stressors have been optimised by evolution to give the best fitness outcomes. It is expected that environmental change will substantially increase long-term stress exposure in many animal groups in the coming decades. A major challenge for biologists is to understand ...
متن کاملFrom Cell and Organismal Biology to Drugs
Because malaria takes a major toll on human health globally, the focus on how to treat it and reduce the malaria burden is understandable. But I became interested in studying the malaria parasite because of its intracellular niche in the mature red blood cell. This is a specialized host cell designed to carry oxygen to tissues, explaining its high hemoglobin content (which also confers the red ...
متن کاملa benchmarking approach to optimal asset allocation for insurers and pension funds
uncertainty in the financial market will be driven by underlying brownian motions, while the assets are assumed to be general stochastic processes adapted to the filtration of the brownian motions. the goal of this study is to calculate the accumulated wealth in order to optimize the expected terminal value using a suitable utility function. this thesis introduced the lim-wong’s benchmark fun...
15 صفحه اولCoalescent histories for discordant gene trees and species trees.
Given a gene tree and a species tree, a coalescent history is a list of the branches of the species tree on which coalescences in the gene tree take place. Each pair consisting of a gene tree topology and a species tree topology has some number of possible coalescent histories. Here we show that, for each n>or=7, there exist a species tree topology S and a gene tree topology G not equalS, both ...
