DOI: 10.1002/mds.26985
Abstract: a-Synuclein (asyn) is the primary component of proteinaceous aggregates that pathologically define a category of diseases termed synucleinopathies, which includes Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies. Elucidating the native function and pathway involvement… read more here.

Spatial and genetic structure of directly-transmitted parasites reflects the distribution of their specific amphibian hosts
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Population Ecology"
DOI: 10.1007/s10144-018-0605-x
Abstract: Parasite distributions depend on the local environment in which host infection occurs, and the surrounding landscape over which hosts move and transport their parasites. Although host and landscape effects on parasite prevalence and spatial distribution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10682-020-10089-3
Abstract: Identifying natural selection in wild plant populations is a challenging task, as the reliability of selection coefficients depends, among other factors, on the critical assumption of data independence. While rarely examined, selection coefficients may be… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mambio.2018.08.007
Abstract: Abstract The formerly large continuous range of brown bears in Iran has become confined to fragmented patches due to habitat conversion. Little is known about population genetic diversity, spatial genetic structure, and the consequences of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41437-021-00483-0
Abstract: Understanding the spatial structure of genetic diversity provides insights into a populations' genetic status and enables assessment of its capacity to counteract the effects of genetic drift. Such knowledge is particularly scarce for the snow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/zo16051
Abstract: Abstract. Animals exhibit a range of dispersal strategies that impact on the organisation of individuals and can be influenced by both the environment and population demography. We examined the fine-scale spatial genetic structure and patterns… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/aobpla/plx076
Abstract: Propagule dispersal shapes fine-scale spatial genetic structure (FSGS), which is mostly a function of physical distance between individuals. However, such a relation with distance may not occur when asymmetric processes, for instance, wind direction during… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyz174
Abstract: The nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) is unique among mammals because females produce litters of genetically identical quadruplets via monozygotic polyembryony. This unusual form of reproduction could have profound impacts on the spatial genetic structure of… read more here.
