For more than two decades, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been used as a primary marker to reveal geographic patterns in the genetic structure of species (Avise et al., 1987). Since then, several ...

Research on genetic mechanism of pig altitude-adaptations underlines the importance of introgression for the first time as a potential reason for pig adaptations to cold and hot environments. This ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Introduction of nonnative species and consequent genetic introgression of native taxa is a primary conservation concern, particularly for ...

Introgression has been used to generate novel allotetraploid Brassica germplasm, improving the yield of Brassica napus and expanding the genetic base of Brassica carinata. The identification of ...

I heard from a long-time correspondent this morning concerning introgression of microcephalin from archaic humans. I'm not sharing the whole message, but I thought it would be worth paraphrasing a key ...

Discover how Neandertal introgression into modern humans shaped our origins and led to key adaptive traits in today's populations. About a month ago I posted quite a bit about Neandertal introgression ...

When breeders of Siberian huskies began contacting Heather Huson ’97, frantic after learning their purebred dogs were showing ancestry from other breeds in ancestry tests, Huson decided to find out ...

Jan 26, 2015, Shenzhen, China -Scientists from Jiangxi Agricultural University, BGI and University of California published their latest research on genetic mechanism of pig altitude-adaptations in ...
