Sex-biased dispersal in a salmonid fish.
We tested the hypothesis that dispersal is sex biased in an unexploited population of brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, on Cape Race, Newfoundland, Canada. Based on the assumptions that trout are promiscuous and that reproductive success is limited primarily by either number of mates (males) or fecundity (females), we predicted that males would disperse greater distances than females. We also...
متن کاملMolecular Reconstruction of Sleeping Beauty, a Tc1-like Transposon from Fish, and Its Transposition in Human Cells
Members of the Tc1/mariner superfamily of transposons isolated from fish appear to be transpositionally inactive due to the accumulation of mutations. Molecular phylogenetic data were used to construct a synthetic transposon, Sleeping Beauty, which could be identical or equivalent to an ancient element that dispersed in fish genomes in part by horizontal transmission between species. A consensu...
متن کاملContinuous exchange of sequence information between dispersed Tc1 transposons in the Caenorhabditis elegans genome.
In a genome-wide analysis of the active transposons in Caenorhabditis elegans we determined the localization and sequence of all copies of each of the six active transposon families. Most copies of the most active transposons, Tc1 and Tc3, are intact but individually have a unique sequence, because of unique patterns of single-nucleotide polymorphisms. The sequence of each of the 32 Tc1 element...
متن کاملOccurrence and significance of atypical Aeromonas salmonicida in non-salmonid and salmonid fish species: a review.
Bacterial strains of Aeromonas salmonicida included in the recognized subsp. acromogenes, subsp. masoucida, and subsp. smithia in addition to the large number of strains not included in any of the described subspecies are referred to as atypical A. salmonicida. The atypical strains form a very heterogeneous group with respect to biochemical characteristics, growth conditions, and production of ...
متن کاملLinkage relationships reflecting ancestral tetraploidy in salmonid fish.
Fifteen classical linkage groups were identified in two salmonid species (Salmo trutta and Salmo gairdneri) and three fertile, interspecific hybrids (S. gairdneri X Salmo clarki, Salvelinus fontinalis X Salvelinus namaycush and S. fontinalis X Salvelinus alpinus) by backcrossing multiply heterozygous individuals. These linkage relationships of electrophoretically detected, protein coding loci w...
