Rivers influence the population genetic structure of bonobos (Pan paniscus).
Bonobos are large, highly mobile primates living in the relatively undisturbed, contiguous forest south of the Congo River. Accordingly, gene flow among populations is assumed to be extensive, but may be impeded by large, impassable rivers. We examined mitochondrial DNA control region sequence variation in individuals from five distinct localities separated by rivers in order to estimate relati...
متن کاملPopulation Graphs: the graph theoretic shape of genetic structure.
Patterns of intraspecific genetic variation result from interactions among both historical and contemporary evolutionary processes. Traditionally, population geneticists have used methods such as F-statistics, pairwise isolation by distance models, spatial autocorrelation and coalescent models to analyse this variation and to gain insight about causal evolutionary processes. Here we introduce a...
متن کاملFemales Shape the Genetic Structure of a Gorilla Population
Dispersal, one of the key life-history features of a species, influences gene flow and, consequently, the genetic structuring of populations. Landscape characteristics such as rivers, mountains, or habitat fragmentation affect dispersal and result in broad-scale genetic structuring of various mammalian species [1-5]. However, less attention has been paid to studying how dispersal is influenced ...
متن کاملPopulation genetic structure and ecotoxicology.
Electrophoretic analyses of population genetic structure, both in the laboratory and in the field, have documented significant shifts in allozyme genotype frequencies in a variety of aquatic taxa as a result of environmental impacts. Studies are documented which indicate that contaminants may select for individuals with tolerant allozyme genotypes, causing the potential loss of individuals with...
متن کاملPopulation Structure of Oxynoemacheilu sangorae (Steindachner, 1897) in Gheshlagh (Kurdistan Province), Sefidbarg and Gamasiab (Kermanshah Province) Rivers Using Microsatellite Markers
Oxynoemacheilu sangorae is an endemic freshwater fish of Iran. In the present study, six microsatellite markers were used to investigate population structure of stone loach (Oxynoemacheilusangorae) in gheshlagh (Kurdistan), Sefidbarg and Gamasiab (Kermanshah) rivers. All of the applied loci showed polymorphism. The average numbers of allele and observed heterozygosity were 14.33 and 0.82 respec...
