Genetic structure among continental and island populations of gyrfalcons.
Little is known about the possible influence that past glacial events have had on the phylogeography and population structure of avian predators in the Arctic and sub-Arctic. In this study, we use microsatellite and mitochondrial control region DNA variation to investigate the population genetic structure of gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolus) throughout a large portion of their circumpolar distribut...
متن کاملPolymorphisms in continental and island populations of Drosophila willistoni.
A comparative study of genic allozyme and chromosomal polymorphisms in four continental (South American) and six oceanic island (West Indies) populations of Drosophila willistoni has been made. The pattern of genic polymorphism is closely similar in all populations. Although regional and local differences in gene frequencies are found, generally the same alleles occur at high, intermediate, and...
متن کاملContinental and Island Rhyolites
The production of small volume silicic rocks in areas of oceanic crust is understood with less certainty than the production of silicic rocks in a continental setting. While the anatexis of silicic continental crust produces rhyolites within a continent, it is unlikely to occur in Iceland, an island composed of basaltic oceanic crust. After analyzing rhyolitic samples I collected from multiple ...
متن کاملEnvironmental Heterogeneity Explains the Genetic Structure of Continental and Mediterranean Populations of Fraxinus angustifolia Vahl
Tree species with wide distributions often exhibit different levels of genetic structuring correlated to their environment. However, understanding how environmental heterogeneity influences genetic variation is difficult because the effects of gene flow, drift and selection are confounded. We investigated the genetic variation and its ecological correlates in a wind-pollinated Mediterranean tre...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA variation, genetic structure and demographic history of Iranian populations
In order to survey the evolutionary history and impact of historical events on the genetic structure of Iranian people, the HV2 region of 141 mtDNA sequences related to six Iranian populations were analyzed. Slight and non-significant FST distances among the Central-western Persian speaking populations of Iran testify to the common origin of these populations from one proto-population. Mismatch...
