(2012-12-06)In one study, a suite of plants from the maize genus Zea L. (Poaceae) and the specialist herbivore Dalbulus maidis (DeLong and Wolcott, 1923) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) were used to test the hypotheses that anti-herbivore ...

(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)This dissertation has two major sections. In Chapter II, complete mitochondrial (mt DNA) genome sequences were used to construct a hypothesis for affinities of most major lineages of rodents that arose quickly in the Eocene ...

(2016-05-06)Globally, the genus Mustelus (smoothhound sharks) represents one of the most speciose groups of cartilaginous fishes. Morphological similarities and geographic overlap among species cause difficulties with species ...

(2020-11-18)Bull Shark, Carcharhinus leucas, reproductive patterns are believed to be characterized by female philopatry towards their natal site, while males migrate longer distances. This behavior linked to sex-biased dispersal can ...

(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The goal of this study was to examine the impact of Africanization on the genetic structure of the Welder Wildlife Refuge feral honey bee population by scoring mtDNA and microsatellite polymorphisms. Adult honey bee workers, ...

Variation of mitochondrial control region sequences of Steller sea lions: the three-stock hypothesis (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Sequence variation of a 238 bp segment of the mitochondrial control region was analyzed for 1,568 Steller sea lions (2.8% of the estimated species population) sampled from 50 rookeries representing nearly every locality ...
