Investigating the population genetics of fungi may be a challenging task because of the complexity of their mating systems (for example, Nieuwenhuis and James, 2016). Besides sexual reproduction and ...

Y-chromosomal and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms have been used for population studies for a long time. However, there is another possibility to define the origin of a population: autosomal ...

Genetic markers such as fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP), simple sequence repeats (SSRs), and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provide unique identifiers for individual organisms. This aids ...

Due to its higher resolution, oligo array CGH has recently made strong inroads in the cytogenetic lab. It’s not surprising. With an increased sensitivity of more than 1,000-fold, microarrays can ...
