The population biology of large brown seaweeds: Ecological Consequences of multiphase life histories in dynamic coastal environments

Article Abstract:

The differences within and between kelps and fucoids in life histories are evaluated as they affect population biology, dispersal and potential limitations in population establishment and microscopic stage responses to disturbance. It is suggested that the commonly made comparisons of seaweeds with terrestrial seed plants are misleading because of large differences in morphology, environments and the ephemeral nature of propagule banks in the sea.

Incorporating molecular evolution into phylogenetic analysis, and a new compilation of conserved polymerase chain reaction primers for animal mitochondrial DNA

Article Abstract:

The animal phlogenetic studies were reviewed to create advances in knowledge of molecular evolutionary processes to create more realistic models of evolution, evaluate the information content of data and understand the relative usefulness of mitochondrial and nuclear genes. A new compilation of conserved polymerase chain reaction primers are presented for mitochondrial genes.

The population biology of mitochondrial DNA and its phylogenetic implications

Article Abstract:

The population biology of mitochondrial DNA and its phylogenetic implications are studied. The limited gene set, biased amino acid composition, and problems of compensatory substitutions can cloud phylogenetic signal, hence dissecting the function of these biases offers both challenges and opportunities in comparative biology.
