A micro-probe/triple quadrupole mass spectrometer system was used to analyze species products, and thermocouples were used to measure temperature.
Our approach generalizes the evolutionary game theory to analyze species whose members are able to sense the sexual state of their conspecifics and to adapt their own sex consequently, either by switching or by taxis towards the highest concentration of the complementary sex.
Due to our reduced sample size, we were unable to analyze species differences and consequently, pooled all species together.
It is therefore possible to analyze species that exist in a range of habitats exposed to different desiccation frequencies.
Recently, because of low reproducibility of RAPD marker results [ 8] and conflict between published data sets, we have utilized microsatellite markers to analyze species relationships [ 6].
Similarly, Dehnen-Schmutz et al. (2007) used current and mid-nineteenth century nursery catalogs that provided marketing pressure values as a proxy for propagule pressure for a wide variety of horticultural species and to analyze species characteristics associated with invasiveness.
Here we used a collection of 112 strains representing all currently recognized species and isolates that were tentatively identified as members of the group, to analyze species diversity and molecular evolution.
