Genetic structure of Culex erraticus populations across the Americas.
Culex erraticus (Dyar & Knab) is a potential competent vector for several arboviruses such as Eastern and Venezuelan equine encephalitis viruses and West Nile virus. It therefore may play a role in the maintenance and spread of viral populations in areas of concern, including the United States where it occurs in >33 states. However, little information is available on potential barriers to movem...
متن کاملRetracing Zika's footsteps across the Americas with computational modeling.
For much of 2016, it was hard to look at the news without seeing a headline about Zika. Images of parents holding newborn children with microcephaly grabbed the world’s attention and spurred the World Health Organization to make a rare declaration of a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (1). Despite widespread awareness of Zika and considerable will to contain its spread, data wer...
متن کاملIntergenerational Occupational Mobility Across Three Continents: Were the Americas Exceptional?
I compare rates of intergenerational occupational mobility across four countries in the late 19th century: (1) 1869-1895 Argentina, (2) 1850-1880 United States, (3) 1851-1881 Britain, and (4) 1865-1900 Norway. There was a sharp divide between Old and New World countries in terms of social mobility: Argentina and the US had similar levels of intergenerational occupational mobility, and these lev...
متن کاملDistribution and correlates of Carnivore phylogenetic diversity across the Americas
Digital maps and a dated supertree of global Carnivore species were used to assess the distribution of American Carnivores’ phylogenetic diversity (PD, measured in millions of years) both from a geopolitical perspective (‘evolutionary heritage’ or EH) and on the basis of species’ range size and conservation status. A new measure, range-weighted EH, is introduced. This measure partitions the tot...
متن کاملY-chromosome diversity in Native Mexicans reveals continental transition of genetic structure in the Americas.
The genetic characterization of Native Mexicans is important to understand multiethnic based features influencing the medical genetics of present Mexican populations, as well as to the reconstruct the peopling of the Americas. We describe the Y-chromosome genetic diversity of 197 Native Mexicans from 11 populations and 1,044 individuals from 44 Native American populations after combining with p...
