Journal ArticleDOI

Colonization of Ochlerotatus taeniorhynchus from Riohacha, Colombia.

TL;DR: Comparison of the Riohacha colony with the previously established Cartagena and Barranquilla colonies showed few differences in the duration of stages of the life cycle between strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is there really natural selection affecting the l frequencies (long hair) in the Brazilian cat populations

TL;DR: It is proposed that an alternative migrational-historical hypothesis exists that explains the correlation between the l frequencies and climate characteristics (which are correlated with the latitude) without using natural selection explanations concerning the appearance of the l allele in Brazil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Phylogenetics of Bradypus (Three-Toed Sloth, Pilosa: Bradypodidae, Mammalia) and Phylogeography of Bradypus variegatus (Brown-Throated Three-Toed Sloth) with Mitochondrial Gene Sequences

TL;DR: A very strong genetic heterogeneity and a striking spatial pattern were detected among these different geographical areas, with the trans-Andean, western Amazon, and Tocantins populations showing the highest levels of genetic diversity, meanwhile the Tapajos and the Brazilian eastern populations yielding lower levels of Genetic diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genética poblacional de cobayas de Colombia, Cavia spp. (Rodentia: Caviidae) con marcadores moleculares RAPD

TL;DR: Los resultados aqui mostrados son coherentes con un complejo proceso de domesticacion en Cavia porcellus, y los consiguientes bajos niveles de flujo genico fueron discutidos comparativamente with los resultados por otros autores analizando otros marcadores moleculares.
