DNA sequence variation in the mitochondrial control region of red-backed voles (Clethrionomys).
The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region was sequenced for 71 individuals from five species of the rodent genus Clethrionomys both to understand patterns of variation and to explore the existence of previously described domains and other elements. Among species, the control region ranged from 942 to 971 bp in length. Our data were compatible with the proposal of three domains (exte...
متن کاملSequence variation and evolution of the mitochondrial DNA control region in the musk shrew, Suncus murinus.
The complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region was cloned and sequenced in the musk shrew, Suncus murinus, Insectivora. The general aspect was similar to that found in other mammals. We have found in two locations of this region the presence of arrays of tandem repeats like those in other shrew species. One array was located in the left domain containing the termination-associated sequen...
متن کاملTobacco Control and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians
Tobacco control in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people has not been addressed consistently due to other health-related problems being given higher priority. However, recently there has been increasing engagement between those working in tobacco control and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and organisations recently. This is supported by Australian Government policies a...
متن کاملIntraspecific DNA sequence variation of the mitochondrial control region of white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus).
Intraspecific sequence variation in the D-loop region of mtDNA in white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus), a relict North American fish species, was examined in 27 individuals from populations of the Columbia and Fraser rivers. Thirty-three varied nucleotide positions were present in a 462-nucleotide D-loop sequence, amplified using the polymerase chain reaction. Bootstrapped neighbor-joining ...
متن کاملGestational diabetes among Aboriginal Australians: prevalence, time trend, and comparisons with non-Aboriginal Australians.
OBJECTIVE This paper investigates the prevalence, trends, and risk factors of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the Aboriginal population in Australia, and provides comparisons to the non-Aboriginal population. DESIGN A retrospective population analysis of all deliveries (230,011) that took place in the state of South Australia between 1988 and 1999, inclusive. Data were obtained from th...
