Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny of North American amblemines (Bivalvia, Unionoida): prodigious polyphyly proves pervasive across genera

TL;DR: Parsimony and Bayesian analyses suggest that most amblemine genera, as currently defined, are polyphyletic, and the extent of Amblemini and the relationships of some genera previously assigned to that tribe remain unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI

Permanent genetic resources added to molecular ecology resources database 1 May 2009-31 July 2009

Glenn R. Almany, +153 more
TL;DR: This article documents the addition of 512 microsatellite marker loci and nine pairs of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) sequencing primers to the Molecular Ecology Resources Database.
Journal ArticleDOI

Freshwater bivalve (Unioniformes) diversity, systematics, and evolution: status and future directions

TL;DR: Expansion of the understanding of the evolutionary relationships and history of unioniform bivalves will provide a solid foundation to study the zoogeography of these rather sessile, obligate freshwater organisms.
Book ChapterDOI

CHAPTER 17 – The Phylogenetic Utility of the Mitochondrial Cytochrome b Gene for Inferring Relationships among Actinopterygian Fishes

TL;DR: The objective of this chapter is to test the phylogenetic utility of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene by analyzing the relationships of monophyletic Actinopterygii or ray-finned fishes at different hierarchic levels by examining morphological data from various sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeographic analysis of the threatened and endangered superconglutinate‐producing mussels of the genus Lampsilis (Bivalvia: Unionidae)

TL;DR: Any future captive breeding projects aimed at augmenting or re‐establishing populations should do so only from the appropriate source populations so as to maintain the genetic integrity of these nascent species.
