No sex-specific markers detected in bluegill sunfish Lepomis macrochirus by AFLP.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The amplified fragment-length polymorphism (AFLP) technique was used to identify sex-specific markers in bluegill sunfish. A total of 12 835 loci were produced by 256 primer combinations, of which nine (0.73 per thousand) exhibited presumed sex-associated amplifications in the pooled samples; however, none of which revealed sex specificity upon individual evaluation.

Genetic paternity analysis and breeding success in bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus).
Fish have some of the most complex mating systems known in the animal kingdom. With the advent of powerful genetic markers and an emerging mathematical framework to calculate parentage, it is now possible to analyze genetic relatedness and gene flow in these systems. An important example is the bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) which consists of parental males that provide sole care for th...

متن کاملThe effects of noise on the auditory sensitivity of the bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus.
As concerns about the effects of underwater anthropogenic noises on the auditory function of organisms increases, it is imperative to assess if all organisms are equally affected by the same noise source. Consequently, auditory capabilities of an organism need to be evaluated and compared interspecifically. Teleost fishes provide excellent models to examine these issues due to their diversity o...
متن کاملMitochondrial and nuclear gene dynamics of introduced populations of Lepomis macrochirus.
A population of bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus, was introduced into three man-made ponds in 1966. Analyses of these ponds in 1984 and 1985 found significant mtDNA divergence without nuclear gene differentiation. The difference between nuclear gene and mtDNA measures of interpopulational divergence was very large and suggests that sexual asymmetries in life histories may be important cons...
متن کاملField swimming performance of bluegill sunfish, Lepomis macrochirus: implications for field activity cost estimates and laboratory measures of swimming performance
Mobility is essential to the fitness of many animals, and the costs of locomotion can dominate daily energy budgets. Locomotor costs are determined by the physiological demands of sustaining mechanical performance, yet performance is poorly understood for most animals in the field, particularly aquatic organisms. We have used 3-D underwater videography to quantify the swimming trajectories and ...
