Speciation and population genetic structure in tropical pacific sea urchins.
TL;DR: Analysis of population genetic structure among four species of sea urchins in the tropical Indo‐West Pacific shows that all four species have accumulated mtDNA differences over similar spatial and temporal scales but that the precise geographic pattern of genetic differentiation varies for each species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of the in vitro antimutagenic action of chlorophyllin against benzo[a]pyrene: Studies of enzyme inhibition, molecular complex formation and degradation of the ultimate carcinogen
Nicholas Tachino,Dexin Guo,Wan Mohaiza Dashwood,Shane Yamane,Randy W. Larsen,Roderick H. Dashwood +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the in vitro antimutagenic activity of CHL towards BP involves accelerated degradation of the ultimate carcinogen, with inhibition of carcinogen activation occurring only at high CHL concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for ras gene mutation in 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline-induced colonic aberrant crypts in the rat.
Nicholas Tachino,Rick Hayashi,Christina Liew,George S. Bailey,Roderick H. Dashwood,Roderick H. Dashwood +5 more
TL;DR: While ras mutations can be detected with increasing frequency in azoxymethane‐induced adenomas and carcinomas, they are reportedly absent in IQ‐induced colon tumors, thus, for IQ and related compounds additional factors (possibly increased cell proliferation) may be important in the later stages of colorectal tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intraspecific Genetic Diversity in the Marine Shrimp Penaeus vannamei: Multiple Polymorphic Elongation Factor-1α Loci Revealed by Intron Sequencing
TL;DR: Intron sequences from the elongation factor-1α (EF1α) gene from the marine shrimp Penaeus vannamei reveal extensive variation even among inbred populations of hatchery-raised shrimp, suggesting that two separate, polymorphic loci have been identified.
