Microsatellite markers in white-tailed deer.
A genomic library of DNA from white-tailed deer was constructed for the isolation of d(AC)n microsatellite repeats. PCR primers were designed from regions flanking each repeat and used to amplify DNA… Expand

Recent demographic bottlenecks are not accompanied by a genetic signature in banner‐tailed kangaroo rats (Dipodomys spectabilis)
Single‐sample methods of bottleneck detection are now routine analyses in studies of wild populations and conservation genetics. Three common approaches to bottleneck detection are the heterozygosity… Expand

Transgenic male mating advantage provides opportunity for Trojan gene effect in a fish.
Genetically modified (GM) strains now exist for many organisms, producing significant promise for agricultural production. However, if these organisms have some fitness advantage, they may also pose… Expand
