Genetic variation is the driving force of evolution and as such is of central interest for biologists. However, inadequate discrimination of errors from true genetic variation could lead to incorrect estimates of gene copy number, population genetic

Targeting optimal introns for phylogenetic analyses in non-model taxa: experimental results in Asian pitvipers

Autor: Roger S. Thorpe, Anita Malhotra, Catharine E. Pook, Simon Creer

Publikováno v: Cladistics : the international journal of the Willi Hennig SocietyReferences. 21(4)

Nuclear introns are increasingly used as phylogenetic markers. Here, we present a multidisciplinary approach towards optimal locus selection and amplification using Asian pitvipers as an example of a non-model taxon, and raise the profile of length v

Multilocus phylogeny, species age and biogeography of the Lesser Antillean anoles

Autor: Yann Surget-Groba, Axel Barlow, Roger S. Thorpe, Anita Malhotra

Publikováno v: Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution. 127:682-695

Lesser Antillean anoles provide classic examples of island radiations. A detailed knowledge of their phylogeny and biogeography, in particular how the age of species relate to the ages of their respective islands and the age of their radiation, is es

International audience; Using multiple markers and multiple analytical approaches is critical for establishing species boundaries reliably, especially so in the case of cryptic species. Despite development of new and powerful analytical methods, most

A likelihood framework analysis of an island radiation: phylogeography of the Lesser Antillean geckoSphaerodactylus vincenti, in comparison with the anoleAnolis roquet

Aim The West Indies have hosted several spectacular radiations, including that of the litter geckos of the genus Sphaerodactylus. We analyse the phylogeography of the Sphaerodactylus vincenti complex and explore the possibility that there may be cryp
