We examined whether mimics occur in allopatry because of gene flow 11,12 from regions where the model is present (and where mimics are selectively favoured) to regions where the model is absent. We ...
Studies of intermixture are shown to be of considerable use for distinguishing alíeles upon which selective forces are acting. Some of the statistical and methodological problems associated with the ...
Rates of gene flow and neighborhood area were investigated in the selfing annual, Triticum dicoccoides. The collection of seed material was made using a spatial hierarchical sampling design in which ...
A new method that could give a deeper insight into evolutionary biology. Biologists identified the segregation of genes that a marine plant underwent during its evolution. They found that the exchange ...
Gene flow from genetically modified crop plants to their wild relatives will have little overall impact on human health or the environment, predicts a team of researchers in a report released today by ...
Recently, genetic techniques have been used to infer past and present patterns of dispersal in a range of aquatic species. Generally, it appears that, for groups such as insects possessing a flying ...
Explore the introgression of microcephalin and why it's favored over the more generic term 'gene flow.' I heard from a long-time correspondent this morning concerning introgression of microcephalin ...
Researchers analyzed the genomes of 20 butterfly species and found evidence that many butterflies -- including distantly related species -- have a surprisingly high amount of gene flow between them.
In a major step toward one day offering gene-based customized medicine, scientists on Thursday unveiled the first map of common human genetic variations — patterns of DNA differences that may help ...
