Isolation and characterization of 25 microsatellite DNA loci for Anopheles albi...
Guimarães-Marques, Giselle Moura; Batista, Jacqueline da Silva; Guimarães, H. M.; Naice-Daou, M. V.; Lima, M. P.; Formiga, Kyara M.The Anopheles albitasis complex includes 6 species, and 3 are considered as malaria vectors in Brazil. Twenty-five polymorphic microsatellite DNA loci were isolated and characterized in 24-36 individuals from the neighborhood of Puraquequara, Manaus, Amazonas State, Brazil. The number of estimated alleles ranged from 2 to 10, the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.182 to 0.897, and the expected heterozygosit...
Genetic structure and historical diversification of catfish Brachyplatystoma pl...
Ochoa, Luz Eneida; Pereira, L. H.G.; Costa-Silva, Guilherme José da; Roxo, Fábio Fernandes; Batista, Jacqueline da Silva; Formiga, Kyara M.Brachyplatystoma platynemum is a catfish species widely distributed in the Amazon basin. Despite being considered of little commercial interest, the decline in other fish populations has contributed to the increase in the catches of this species. The structure, population genetic variability, and evolutionary process that have driven the diversification of this species are presently unknown. Considering that, i...

Cruz-Hernández, Pedro; Batista, Jacqueline da Silva; Formiga, Kyara M.; Rafael, Míriam Silva; Tadei, Wanderli Pedro; Santos, Joselita Maria M.Anopheles (Nyssorhynchus) triannulatus is a complex of 3 species. Thirteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized in 20 to 25 individuals from Manaus (AM, Brazil). The number of alleles per locus varied from 3 to 10 (mean = 6.0). The observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.250 to 0.875 (mean = 0.680) and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.376 to 0.844 (mean = 0.698). Two loci exhibited...
Genetic diversity and structure of astrocaryum jauari (mart.) palm in two amazo...
Oliveira, Liliane D Santos; Ramos, Santiago Linorio Ferreyra; Lopes, Maria Teresa Gomes; Dequigiovanni, Gabriel; Veasey, Elizabeth AnnAstrocaryum jauari is a non-domesticated palm that is exploited by poachers. Our objective was to investigate the organization of the genetic diversity and structure of three A. jauari populations. The study was carried out in the state of Amazonas, between the municipalities of Coari and Manaus. Nine microsatellite loci were used for the genetic analyses. High genetic variation was found, with a mean number of...
