Journal ArticleDOI
A molecular approach to the tangled intrageneric relationships underlying phylogeny in Euplotes (Ciliophora, Spirotrichea).
TL;DR: Small subunit rRNA sequences of 11 morphologically defined species colonizing different habitats were determined and pointed to a high divergence between this genus and the other Spirotrichea, together with a high variability within the genus Euplotes.

Sex in Ciliates

TL;DR: The existence of genetic variety affecting phenotype represents the presupposition for selection to operate and then for evolution to accomplish.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale phylogenomic analysis reveals the phylogenetic position of the problematic taxon Protocruzia and unravels the deep phylogenetic affinities of the ciliate lineages.

TL;DR: The Ciliophora is one of the most studied protist lineages because of its important ecological role in the microbial loop and there is a paucity of data when it comes to availability of protein-coding genes especially for taxa that do not belong to the class Oligohymenophorea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic consequences of intensive management in game birds
Filippo Barbanera,Oliver R. W. Pergams,Monica Guerrini,Giovanni Forcina,Panicos Panayides,Fernando Dini +5 more
TL;DR: Captive breeding programs should make strict use of time-saving and comparatively low cost DNA barcodes to minimize genetic pollution, such as those provided by diagnostic RAPD markers, and the active ban on import of exotics and/or hybrids be extended to non-local populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeography and genetic structure of the edible sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) inferred from the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene
TL;DR: The results obtained in the present study are consistent with genetic sustainability of current exploitation; local depleted stocks are recurrently replenished by recruits that may have originated from nonharvested areas.
