    Biodiversity of Angola : Science & Conservation: A Modern Synthesis (2019)
    Cham : Springer International Publishing
    Details Availability
    Keywords: Endangered ecosystems ; Endangered ecosystems ; Animal ecology ; Nature Conservation ; Animal ecology ; Nature Conservation ; Ecosystems. ; Plant Ecology ; Biodiversity ; Biodiversity ; Plant Ecology ; Animal migration. ; Conservation biology. ; Ecology . ; Biotic communities.
    Description / Table of Contents: This open access multi-authored book presents a 'state of the science' synthesis of knowledge on the biodiversity of Angola, based on sources in peer-reviewed journals, in books and where appropriate, unpublished official reports. The book identifies Angola as one of the most biologically diverse countries in Africa, but notes that its fauna, flora, habitats and the processes that drive the dynamics of its ecosystems are still very poorly researched and documented. This 'state of the science' synthesis is for the use of all students of Angola's biodiversity, and for those responsible for the planning, development and sustainable management of the country's living resources. The volume brings together the results of expeditions and research undertaken in Angola since the late eighteenth century, with emphasis on work conducted in the four decades since Angola's independence in 1975. The individual chapters have been written by leaders in their fields, and reviewed by peers familiar with the region

    Notes: [Auszug] Milk from domestic cows has been a valuable food source for over 8,000 years, especially in lactose-tolerant human societies that exploit dairy breeds. We studied geographic patterns of variation in genes encoding the six most important milk proteins in 70 native European cattle breeds. We found ...

    Cytonuclear disequilibria in wild populations of rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) suggest unequal allele turnover rates at the b locus (IGKC1) (1999)
    Springer
    Immunogenetics 49 (1999), S. 629-643

    ISSN: 1432-1211

    Notes: Abstract  DNA sequence comparisons suggest that evolutionary rates at the rabbit IGKC1 locus can differ among allelic lineages. Here we address the question of whether population turnover rates can vary among IGKC1 alleles. We studied the distribution of sixteen IGKC1 (or b-locus) allotypes in areas comprising the aboriginal species range (Iberian peninsula). Rabbits in this area belong to one of two distantly related mitochondrial lineages (mtDNA types) A and B. In the more recent distribution area of the species, all rabbits belong to the mtDNA type B lineage, and IGKC1 alleles b4 and b5 comprise over 90% of the gene pool. These two alleles are also predominant in areas of mtDNA type B prevalence within the Iberian range. However, in areas of mtDNA type A prevalence, the b4 and b5 allotypes are rare or absent; they apparently have been replaced by serologically related, but distinct, 'endemic' variants. The cytonuclear disequilibria were highly significant, also within the subsample consisting of populations from Spain. These observations suggest that allelic persistence times for the predominant IGKC1 lineages could be shorter than the divergence time of the major mtDNA lineages A and B. In contrast, the relative gene frequencies of the IGKC1 allele b9 were similar among the type A and type B rabbits; it was present in most populations at low frequency. In consequence, persistence times of the b9 allele appear to be longer than the divergence time of lineages A and B. The data reported here are in agreement with the DNA sequence data, providing further proof that the molecular clock can run at different rates among allelic lineages at the rabbit IGKC1 locus.

    Keywords: rabbit ; hemoglobin β chain ; electrophoretic polymorphism

    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract A genetic polymorphism of β-chain rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) hemoglobin is demonstrated by means of acid starch gel electrophoresis. The biochemical evidence presented suggests that a previously reported substitution of a neutral amino acid for a histidine is responsible for the detected genetic variation. Segregation analysis was performed in a sample of 15 matings with 49 offspring and confirmed the genetic hypothesis: two common alleles at an autosomal locus. The calculated gene frequencies in a random sample of 125 individuals areHBB*1=0.48 andHBB*2=0.52.

    Genetic Variation in Some Populations of the Golden-Striped Salamander, Chioglossa lusitanica (Amphibia: Urodela), in Portugal (1997)

    Keywords: Amphibia ; polymorphism ; golden-striped salamander ; Chioglossa lusitanica ; Urodela ; starch gel electrophoresis ; isoelectric focusing
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology , Chemistry and Pharmacology
    Notes: Abstract Genetic variation in the golden-striped salamander (Chioglossa lusitanica) was assessed in 231 individuals from four Portuguese populations by means of horizontal starch gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. Three of 19 enzyme systems, representing 21 presumptive loci, were found to be polymorphic: phosphoglucomutase 1 (PGM1), peptidase B (PEPB), and peptidase D (PEPD). The observed average heterozygosity in Chioglossa lusitanica (0.027) is significantly lower than that observed for other amphibians, either urodeles or salamandrids. Differences in allele frequencies and the presence of private alleles are indicative of a high degree of population differentiation. PEPD, in particular, seems to be a diagnostic locus separating the southernmost population studied from the others.

    Notes: Abstract A genetic polymorphism of rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) hemoglobin α chain is demonstrated by means of acid starch gel electrophoresis. The polymorphism is not detected by isoelectric focusing and may be based upon neutral for neutral amino acid substitutions in accordance with previous findings by means of amino acid sequencing. Segregation analysis was performed on 15 matings with 49 offspring and confirmed the initial genetic hypothesis of three common codominant alleles at an autosomal locus. The calculated gene frequencies in a random sample of 86 unrelated individuals areHBA*1=0.73,HBA*2=0.22, andHBA*3=0.05.
