Journal ArticleDOI

An efficient technique for primer development and application that integrates fluorescent labeling and multiplex PCR.

TL;DR: This technique was successfully used to develop microsatellite markers in several plant species by combining two techniques in the same PCR reaction: custom-labeling of primers by the investigator and multiplexing multiple primers together in thesame reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Empirical Review: Characteristics of Plant Microsatellite Markers that Confer Higher Levels of Genetic Variation

TL;DR: If researchers aim to target high genetic variation, dinucleotide motif lengths with large repeat frequencies may be best, and researchers should carefully consider marker characteristics so they can be tailored to the desired application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproductive allocation between the sexes, across natural and novel habitats, and its impact on genetic diversity

TL;DR: The results show that individual variation in reproduction is controlled by the interaction of both the environment and genetics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic variation and clonal structure of the rare, riparian shrub Spiraea virginiana (Rosaceae)

TL;DR: The goal of this study was to quantify genetic variation and population differentiation in a species that resides in a highly stochastic environment and is both rare and highly clonal, Spiraea virginiana, and to determine if one trait is more influential genetically than the other.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beaver (Castor canadensis) Impacts on Herbaceous and Woody Vegetation in Southeastern Georgia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of wood-cutting and foraging by beavers on the surrounding plant community in Southeastern Georgia, and found that the composition of herbaceous or woody vegetation did not differ significantly between beaver and control sites; species had an equal chance of occurring in either site.
