Most pleurodont lizard families (anoles, iguanas and their relatives), with the exception of basilisks casquehead lizards (family Corytophanidae), share homologous XX/XY sex chromosomes, syntenic chicken chromosome 15. Here, we used a suite methods (i.e. RADseq, RNAseq qPCR) to identify corytophanid chromosomes for first time. We reveal that all examined species have partially degenerated 17. Transcriptomic analyses showed expression X-linked genes in corytophanid, Basiliscus vittatus, is...
Abstract Squamate reptiles (lizards, snakes, and amphibians) are an outstanding group for studying sex chromosome evolution—they old, speciose, geographically widespread, exhibit myriad sex-determining modes. Yet, the vast majority of squamate species lack heteromorphic chromosomes. Cataloging systems lacking easily identifiable, chromosomes, therefore, is essential before we to fully understand evolution vertebrate Here, use restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) classify...
Abstract Lionfish ( Pterois volitans ) have rapidly invaded the tropical Atlantic and spread across wider Caribbean in a relatively short period of time. Because its high invasion capacity, we used it as model to identify connectivity among nine marine protected areas (MPAs) situated four countries Gulf Mexico Sea. This study provides evidence local genetic differentiation P. A total 475 lionfish samples were characterized with 12 microsatellites, 6–20 alleles per locus. Departures from...
The family Chamaeleonidae comprises 228 species, boasting an extensive geographic spread and array of evolutionary novelties adaptations, but a paucity genetic molecular analyses. Veiled chameleon (
