A method for detecting recent changes in contemporary effective population size from linkage disequilibrium at linked and unlinked loci
Estimation of contemporary effective population size (Ne) from linkage disequilibrium (LD) between unlinked pairs of genetic markers has become an important tool in the field of population and conservation geneti...

Population structure and genetic variation of lane snapper (Lutjanus synagris) in the northern Gulf of Mexico
Lane snappers (Lutjanus synagris), sampled from eight localities in the northern Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) and one locality along the Atlantic coast of Florida, were assayed for allelic variation at 14 nuclear-encode...

PCR Amplification of Microsatellites from Single Cells of Karenia brevis Preserved in Lugol’s Iodine Solution
A simple and effective protocol is described for multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of single cells of Karenia brevis. The protocol requires minimum processing, avoids additions that might di...

A modified step**-stone model of population structure in red drum, Sciaenops ocellatus (Sciaenidae), from the northern Gulf of Mexico
Genetic studies of population or ‘stock’ structure in exploited marine fishes typically are designed to determine whether geographic boundaries useful for conservation and management planning are identifiable....

Temporal stability and spatial divergence of mitochondrial DNA haplotype frequencies in red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) from coastal regions of the western Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico
Restriction-site variation in mitochondrial (mt) DNA was assayed among 1675 red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus Linnaeus) sampled from 20 localities along the southeastern coast of the USA (western Atlantic) and the G...

Mitochondrial DNA variation in king mackerel (Scomberomorus cavalla) from the western Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico
King mackerel (Scomberomorus cavalla Cuvier) collected in 1992 and 1993 from 13 localities along the Atlantic coast of the southeastern USA and in the northern Gulf of Mexico were surveyed for variation in mitoc...

Mitochondrial DNA differentiation and population structure in red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) from the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Ocean
Variation in mitochondrial (mt)DNA was examined among 473 red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) sampled in 1988 and 1989 from nearshore localities in the northern Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) and the Atlantic coast of the sout...

Chromosomal NORs as taxonomic and systematic characters in North American cyprinid fishes
There is substantial interspecific variation in chromosomal NORs among North American cyprinid fishes. This variation is taxonomically informative. In addition, the chromosomal NOR database appears to provide ...

The karyotype and genome structure of the pirate perchAphredoderus sayanus (Aphredoderidae: Teleostei)
The standard karyotype, genome size (DNA content), and genomic DNA base composition and distribution of the relict paracanthopterygian fish,Aphredoderus sayanus, were investigated. Several features of theA. sayan...

A thermal denaturation study of genomic DNAs from North American minnows (Cyprinidae: Teleostei)
Base compositions and differential melting rate profiles of genomic DNAs from twenty species of North American cyprinid fishes were generated via thermal denaturation. Base pair composition expressed as % GC v...

A meiotic effect of a mutator gene in Drosophila melanogaster
Two new parameters of the third chromosome mutator gene, mu, in Drosophila melanogaster are described. The mutator significantly alters both meiotic chromosome disjunction and crossing over in females, but not in...
