Vanishing native American dog lineages

Physiological ecology and functional traits of North American native and Eurasian introduced Phragmites australis lineages

Physiological ecology and plant functional traits are often used to explain plant invasion. To gain a better understanding of how traits influence invasion, studies usually compare the invasive plant to a native congener, but there are few conspecific examples in the literature. In North America, the presence of native and introduced genetic lineages of the common reed, Phragmites australis, pr...

Native American Flute Ergonomics

The ergonomic issues particular to playing musical instruments have been widely studied. However, most research studies have focused on orchestral instruments and trained, experienced musicians (for example, [Lonsdale 2014] for Western concert flute, [Furuya 2006] and [BoyleRB 2010] for piano, and [Wade-MA 2008] for trumpet). The bulk of the assistance and advice published for musicians and mus...

The cheetah: native american.

Two North American fossil species of large felids, hitherto regarded as Late Cenozoic pumas (mountain lion), are in fact closely related to the living cheetah, Acinonyx, of Africa and Eurasia. A new subgenus (Miracinonyx) is proposed for the American species. Cheetahs and pumas may have had a common ancestor in the Miocene of North America.

Microsatellite loci analysis for the genetic variability and paternal lineages in Iranian native dogs

Genetic variation among the individuals is considered as an important tool for conservation of livestock animals. This study was conducted to analyze the genetic variation, phylogenetic relationship and paternal lineages among Iranian dog populations using seventeen autosomal and Y chromosome-specific microsatellite markers. Total DNAs of the samples were extracted and applied for genotype anal...
