Only 0.7% of 28,205 known New England ant specimens (1861–2011) were from Rhode Island. Consequently, apparent ant species richness of Rhode Island counties was lower than expected based on simple biogeographic models. Collections from two poorly sampled areas—Block Island and Tiverton—and from the 2013 Rhode Island Natural History Survey’s BioBlitz increased Rhode Island’s ant specimens by 46%...

Genetic heterogeneity was investigated using 24 microsatellite markers and genomic DNA of randomly selected birds from the control lines RIR chicken maintained at ICAR-Central Avian Research Institute, Izatnagar. The alleles were determined on urea-PAGE, recorded GelDoc system samples genotyped. complete genotypic data set analyzed POPGENE software. observed heterozygosity (Ho) means 0.6306±0.3...

The efficiency of insertion and/or deletion (indels) polymorphisms as genetic markers was evaluated by genotyping 102 indels loci in native chicken populations from Myanmar and Indonesia as well as Red jungle fowls and Green jungle fowls from Java Island. Out of the 102 indel markers, 97 were polymorphic. The average observed and expected heterozygosities were 0.206 to 0.268 and 0.229 to 0.284 ...
