Horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was used to characterize the genetic structure of central mudminnow (Umbra limi) populations from acid stressed (low pH/high Al) and nonacid‐stressed sites in the north branch of the Moose River (NBMR), New York, in order to determine if environmental shifts were accompanied by detectable shifts in genetic structure Central mudminnow populations in the NBMR were characterized by significantly (p ≥ 0 05) lower heterozygosity levels at stressed sites (H (mean number of heterozygotes per locus per individual) = 0 060 0 102) than reference sites (H = 0 130, 0 142) Additionally, several genetic loci demonstrated either consistent (isocitrate dehydrogenase, phosphogluconate dehydrogenase) or moderately consistent (glucose 6 phosphate isomerase 1 malate dehydrogenase‐1, mannose‐6 phosphate isomerase) genotypic shifts in comparisons between populations at reference and low pH/high Al sites Populations at acid stressed sites were characterized by higher frequencies of one particular allozyme, suggesting that environmental conditions were acting as a selective force In acute laboratory toxicity tests (pH, 4 5, Al, 7 5 mg/L), the most tolerant fish were significantly more genetically variable, indicating that genetic diversity may be beneficial to the survival of individual fish experiencing physiological stress
Mardi à 10h45 Jeudi à 11h Présentation du cours Ce cours s'adresse aux étudiants ayant choisi de suivre une dominante en littérature et à tous les étudiants désireux d'acquérir une culture littéraire solide. Il se découpe en deux parties, la première, celle que nous allons aborder maintenant, couvre la période du Moyen Age au siècle des Lumières, la seconde, programmée au semestre du printemps commence avec les débuts du Romantisme et s'achève avec le Nouveau Roman. Dans les deux parties, nous étudions en alternance les principaux courants et les grandes oeuvres qui font l'histoire de la littérature française. On assistera à la conférence de Nancy Oddo sur l'humanisme. Date à définir.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
