Pervasive hybridization with local wild relatives in Western European grapevine...

Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) diversity richness results from a complex domestication history over multiple historical periods. Here, we used whole-genome resequencing to elucidate different aspects of its recent evolutionary history. Our results support a model in which a central domestication event in grapevine was followed by postdomestication hybridization with local wild genotypes, leading to the presence ...

Divide to conquer: A complex pattern of biodiversity depicted by vertebrate com...

The identification of northern and southern components in different vertebrate species led researchers to accept a two-component hypothesis for the Brazilian Atlantic forest (BAF). Nevertheless, neither a formal proposal nor a meta-analysis to confirm this coincidence was ever made. Our main objective here was therefore to systematically test in how many vertebrate components the BAF could be divided by analysi...

Genetic characterization of green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from São Tomé and Pr...

Genetic studies on green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) in the Eastern Atlantic have mostly focused on reproductive females, with limited information available regarding juveniles and foraging grounds. Improved understanding of genetic diversity and patterns of connectivity between nesting and foraging grounds is critical to identify management units and delineate suitable conservation strategies. Here we analyze...

Understanding the mechanisms of antitropical divergencein the seabird White-fac...

Analytical methods that apply coalescent theory to multilocus data have improved infer-ences of demographic parameters that are critical to understanding population divergenceand speciation. In particular, at the early stages of speciation, it is important to implementmodels that accommodate conflicting gene trees, and benefit from the presence of sharedpolymorphisms. Here, we employ eleven nuclear loci and the m...

Extensive intraspecific polymorphism detected by SSCP at the nuclear C-mos gene...

C-mos is a highly conserved intronless gene that has proved useful in the analysis of ancient phylogenetic relationships within vertebrates. We selected the Iberian endemic Schreiber’s green lizard (Lacerta schreiberi) that persisted in allopatric refugia since the late Pliocene to investigate the utility of the Cmos nuclear gene for intraspecific phylogeographic studies. Our combination of DNA sequencing with ...
