“…The accumulation of biogeographical, ecological, morphological and molecular knowledge (Sene, Pereira & Vilela, 1988;Silva & Sene, 1991;Monteiro & Sene, 1995;Manfrin, de Brito & Sene, 2001;Tidon-Sklorz & Sene, 2001;de Brito, Manfrin & Sene, 2002;Moraes & Sene, 2004;Kuhn & Sene, 2005;Moraes, Rosa & Sene, 2005), related to the D. gouveai species makes it a good biological model for comparative studies among natural populations. The aim of this work is to make a comparative analysis among pBuM-2 satellite DNA sequences of six isolated D. gouveai populations in order to detect any populational structure.…”
