The common cockle (Cerastoderma edule) plays an important role in marine ecosystems and represents a valuable socioeconomic resource for coastal communities. In 2012, the cockle beds from Rı́a de Arousa (Galicia, NW Spain) were seriously decimated by the protozoan Marteilia cochillia responsible for marteiliosis. We aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers potentially associated with resilience to martei...
A GIS-supported Multidisciplinary Database for the Management of UNESCO Global Geoparks: the Courel Mountains Geopark (Spain)NARA Subscribed
The management of a UNESCO Global Geopark (UGGp) requires a vast wealth of miscellaneous scientific knowledge that can be successfully organised using a Geographical Information System (GIS). This paper presents a pragmatic GIS database to assist in the suitable governance of the Courel Mountains UGGp (2017) in Northwest Spain. The database is structured in 66 coverages compiled from public sources and previous works or produc...
Reduced Introgression of Sex Chromosome Markers in the Mexican Howler Monkey (Alouatta palliata × A. pigra) Hybrid ZoneNARA Subscribed
Interspecific hybridization allows the introgression or movement of alleles from one genome to another. While some genomic regions freely exchange alleles during hybridization, loci associated with reproductive isolation do not intermix. In many model organisms, the X chromosome displays limited introgression compared to autosomes owing to the presence of multiple loci associated with hybrid sterility or inviability (the “larg...
Gobio lozanoi , from the River Febros northern Portugal, contained female Philometra ovata in the body cavity causing abdominal swelling. A mild chronic inflammation and some tissue necrosis were observed in infected fish. Significant correlations were found between occurrence of infection and host length, and gonado‐somatic index; and between intensity of infection and condition factor.
The analysis of 12 microsatellite loci in 16 native populations of Salmo trutta from Duero basin evidenced a strong genetic differentiation in accordance with the existence of two divergent Atlantic mtDNA lineages, Atlantic (AT) and Duero (DU). These lineages were observed spatially segregated mainly in the Lower‐course and in the inner part of the basin. Unlike previous isozyme information, microsatellite data suggested a mor...
