Journal ArticleDOI
A molecular phylogeny of the genus Gammarus (Crustacea: Amphipoda) based on mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences.
TL;DR: The dramatic climate change following the uplift of the Tibetan Plateau was probably the most important factor in triggering the diversification of southeastern and northwestern groups and the genus Sinogammarus is invalid and should be part of the genus Gammarus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward the phylogeny of the family Lacertidae - Why 4708 base pairs of mtDNA sequences cannot draw the picture
TL;DR: A phylogeny of the family Lacertidae was derived from DNA sequences of six mitochondrial genes, although only a few nodes were confidently resolved using maximum parsimony, although the data yielded a total of 1664 phylogenetically informative characters.
Journal ArticleDOI
A rapid rate of sex-chromosome turnover and non-random transitions in true frogs.

Barrow,Daniele Canestrelli,Pierre-André Crochet,Christophe Dufresnes,Jinzhong Fu,Wen-Juan Ma,Constantino Macías Garcia,Karim Ghali,Alfredo G. Nicieza,Ryan P. O'Donnell,Nicolas Rodrigues,Antonio Romano,Iñigo Martínez-Solano,Ilona Stepanyan,Silvia Zumbach,Alan Brelsford,Nicolas Perrin +22 more
TL;DR: A very high rate of sex chromosome turnover in true frogs is shown, which may be driven by rapid mutation-load accumulation due to the low recombination rate in males, suggesting a key role for mutation- load accumulation in non-recombining genomic regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A fine line between sex and unisexuality: the phylogenetic constraints on parthenogenesis in lacertid lizards
Robert W. Murphy,Robert W. Murphy,Jinzhong Fu,Jinzhong Fu,Ross D. MacCulloch,Ilya S. Darevsky,Larissa A. Kupriyanova +6 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the causative agents of the formation of unisexual Darevskia are likely to be genes linked with the sex chromosomes within the parental sexual species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Speciation in the Rana chensinensis species complex and its relationship to the uplift of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau
Wei-Wei Zhou,Yang Wen,Yang Wen,Jinzhong Fu,Yong-Biao Xu,Jie-Qiong Jin,Li Ding,Mi-Sook Min,Jing Che,Ya-Ping Zhang,Ya-Ping Zhang +10 more
TL;DR: An investigation into speciation in the Rana chensinensis species complex using DNA sequence data from one mitochondrial and five nuclear genes revealed four major clades in the complex, and each was found to likely represent a species, including one cryptic species.
