Mitochondrial DNA phylogeny and sequential colonization of Canary Islands by darkling beetles of the genus Pimelia (Tenebrionidae)
- C. Juan, P. Oromí, G. Hewitt
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the Royal Society of London…
- 22 August 1995
Fifteen species of the darkling beetle genus Pimelia (Tenebrionidae: Coleoptera) have been sequenced for a 365 b. p. portion of the mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase I gene. Thirteen of these are… Expand
The evolutionary history of the genus Timarcha (Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae) inferred from mitochondrial COII gene and partial 16S rDNA sequences.
- J. Gómez-Zurita, C. Juan, E. Petitpierre
- Medicine, Biology
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 February 2000
The apterous genus Timarcha consists of three subgenera and more than 100 species in its Palearctic distribution, with specialized feeding on few plant families. Fifty-four sequences sampled from 31… Expand
Localization of tandemly repeated DNA sequences in beetle chromosomes by fluorescentin situ hybridization
- C. Juan, J. Pons, E. Petitpierre
- Biology, Medicine
- Chromosome Research
- 1 September 1993
In situ hybridization to chromosomes and nuclei ofTenebrio molitor shows the massive presence of a species-specific satellite DNA in all chromosomes and six sites of rDNA in mitotic chromosomes.… Expand
The complete mitochondrial genome of the subterranean crustacean Metacrangonyx longipes (Amphipoda): A unique gene order and extremely short control region
- Maria M. Bauzà-Ribot, D. Jaume, C. Juan, J. Pons
- Medicine, Biology
- Mitochondrial DNA
- 1 January 2009
Metazoan mitochondrial genomes usually consist of the same gene set, but some taxonomic groups show a considerable variety in gene order and nucleotide composition. The mitochondrial genomes of 37… Expand
Evolution and diversification of the forest and hypogean ground-beetle genus Trechus in the Canary Islands.
- H. Contreras-Díaz, O. Moya, P. Oromí, C. Juan
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 March 2007
The beetle genus Trechus (Carabidae) is represented in the Macaronesian Islands by 43 endemic species. The Canary Islands have 16 endemic species, with two adapted to hypogean life. Phylogenetic… Expand
Mitogenomic Phylogenetic Analysis Supports Continental-Scale Vicariance in Subterranean Thalassoid Crustaceans
- Maria M. Bauzà-Ribot, C. Juan, F. Nardi, P. Oromí, J. Pons, D. Jaume
- Biology, Medicine
- Current Biology
- 6 November 2012
Many continental subterranean water crustaceans ("stygobionts") display extreme disjunct distributions, where different species in the same genus are isolated on continents or islands separated by… Expand
The phylogeography of the darkling beetle, Hegeter politus, in the eastern Canary Islands
- C. Juan, K.M. Ibrahim, P. Orom|, G.M. Hewitt
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the Royal Society of London…
- 22 January 1998
We investigated the phylogeography of Hegeter politus, a saprophagous, flightless darkling beetle endemic to the eastern Canary Islands, using a fragment of the mitochondrial COI gene. Distance and… Expand
Genetic structure, phylogeography and demography of two ground‐beetle species endemic to the Tenerife laurel forest (Canary Islands)
- O. Moya, H. Contreras-Díaz, P. Oromí, C. Juan
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology
- 1 October 2004
The volcanic island of Tenerife (Canary archipelago) was formerly covered at 600–1200 m above sea level on most of its northern side by a cloud forest holding much of the endemic insect fauna. In the… Expand
Stable expression of 1Dx5 and 1Dy10 high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit genes in transgenic rye drastically increases the polymeric glutelin fraction in rye flour

- Biology, Medicine
- Plant Molecular Biology
- 1 April 2004
We generated and characterized transgenic rye synthesizing substantial amounts of high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) from wheat. The unique bread-making characteristic of wheat flour is… Expand
