Geographic Variation of Caste Structure among Ant Populations
Morphologically distinct worker castes of eusocial insects specialize in different tasks. The relative proportions of these castes and their body sizes represent the demography of a colony that is predicted to vary adaptively with environments. Despite strong theoretical foundations, there has been little empirical evidence for the evolution of colony demography in nature. We show that geograph...
متن کاملGenetic variation within and among populations of Arabidopsis thaliana.
We investigated levels of nucleotide polymorphism within and among populations of the highly self-fertilizing Brassicaceous species, Arabidopsis thaliana. Four-cutter RFLP data were collected at one mitochondrial and three nuclear loci from 115 isolines representing 11 worldwide population collections, as well as from seven commonly used ecotypes. The collections include multiple populations fr...
متن کاملThe development of within-song type variation in song sparrows.
We investigated the development of within-song type variation in song sparrows, Melospiza melodia, with two experiments designed to determine how exposure to within-type variation influences the song-learning process and whether within-type variation itself is a learned trait. In the first experiment, we compared learning between two groups of males, one group tutored exclusively with song mode...
متن کاملAllozyme and RAPD analysis of the genetic diversity and geographic variation in wild populations of the American chestnut (Fagaceae).
Genetic variation among 12 populations of the American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was investigated. Population genetic parameters estimated from allozyme variation suggest that C. dentata at both the population and species level has narrow genetic diversity as compared to other species in the genus. Average expected heterozygosity was relatively low for the population collected in the Black Ro...
متن کاملGene-expression variation within and among human populations.
Understanding patterns of gene-expression variation within and among human populations will provide important insights into the molecular basis of phenotypic diversity and the interpretation of patterns of expression variation in disease. However, little is known about how gene-expression variation is apportioned within and among human populations. Here, we characterize patterns of natural gene...
