Intraspecific Phylogeography: The Mitochondrial DNA Bridge Between Population Genetics and Systematics

TL;DR: This poster presents a probabilistic procedure to characterize the response of the immune system to E.coli bacteria and shows clear patterns in response to the presence of E. coli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of the cytochrome b gene of mammals.

TL;DR: Comparisons of these cytochromeb sequences support current structure-function models for this membrane-spanning protein, including that part of the outer surface which includes the Qo redox center is more constrained than the remainder of the molecule, namely, the transmembrane segments and the surface that protrudes into the mitochondrial matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of animal mitochondrial dna: relevance for population biology and systematics

TL;DR: This work focuses on molecular aspects of animal mtDNA that are especially relevant to its use in evolutionary studies, and considers the form and frequency of three types of change in mtDNA: base substitution, length variation, and sequence rearrangement.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA marker technologies and their applications in aquaculture genetics.

TL;DR: In this review, the principles, potential power, requirements, advantages, and disadvantages of the various marker types are discussed, along with their applications in a variety of aquaculture studies.

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors

TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and organization of the human mitochondrial genome

TL;DR: The complete sequence of the 16,569-base pair human mitochondrial genome is presented and shows extreme economy in that the genes have none or only a few noncoding bases between them, and in many cases the termination codons are not coded in the DNA but are created post-transcriptionally by polyadenylation of the mRNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A new method for sequencing DNA

TL;DR: Reactions that cleave DNA preferentially at guanines, at adenines,At cytosines and thymines equally, and at cytosine alone are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid evolution of animal mitochondrial DNA.

TL;DR: The rate of evolution of the mitochondrial genome appears to exceed that of the single-copy fraction of the nuclear genome by a factor of about 10 and is likely to be an extremely useful molecule to employ for high-resolution analysis of the evolutionary process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence and gene organization of mouse mitochondrial DNA

TL;DR: The mouse mitochondrial DNA genome is highly homologous in overall sequence and in gene organization to human mitochondrial DNA, with the descending order of conserved regions being tRNA genes; origin of light-strand replication; r RNA genes; knownprotein-coding genes; unidentified protein-c coding genes; displacement-loop region.
