GENETIC STRUCTURE AMONG FOUR POPULATIONS OF PADDLEFISH, POLYODON SPATHULA (ACTINOPTERYGII: ACIPENSERIFORMES: POLYODONTIDAE), BASED ON DISOMIC MICROSATELLITE MARKERS

Genetic structure among four populations of paddlefish, Polyodon spathula (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Polyodontidae), based on disomic microsatellite markers

Background.The paddlefish, Polyodon spathula (Walbaum, 1792), is an important species for commercial and recreational fisheries throughout the central United States.Populations have declined in many areas due Extractor Fan to river modification, loss of spawning habitat, pollution, and over-exploitation.Assessing genetic diversity of a species is a

Molecular Fingerprinting Analysis of Yeasts Isolated from Traditional Guizhou Xiaoqu, a Traditional Fermentation Starter

A total of 59 yeast isolates from Xiaoqu from five different regions of Guizhou were identified to belong to six species by sequencing of the D1/D2 domain of the 26S rRNA gene, including Trichosporon asahii (one strain), Saccharomycopsis fibuligera (32 strains), Saccharomycopsis malanga (8 strains), Hyphopichia burtonii (4 strains), Wickerhamomyces
