Sentence examples for microsatellites to reconstruct from inspiring English sources

Few studies have used microsatellites to reconstruct phylogenies although they have been widely used for population genetic studies (e. g. [ 42- 46]).

Perished and surviving offspring were quantitatively sampled and genotyped along with their parents, using eight polymorphic microsatellite loci, to reconstruct a parent offspring pedigree and estimate variance components.

Here, we employ an intensive sampling coverage of 832 isolates of Phytopthora ramorum (the causative agent of SOD) from 60 California forests, genotyped at nine microsatellite loci, to reconstruct its invasion.

We combined different approaches based on multilocus microsatellite genotypes to reconstruct kinship among nestlings: estimates of relatedness coefficients, formulation of relationship-hypotheses, significance testing of alternative hypotheses, and maximum-likelihood sibship reconstruction techniques.

Here, we used microsatellite markers to reconstruct a multi-generation pedigree of wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L). using archived scale samples collected with a total trapping system within a river over a 10 year period.

Ten additional short repeat microsatellites were used to reconstruct changes in genetic diversity and population structure over the last 77 years from museum specimens.

However, "neutral" markers such as microsatellites are designed to reconstruct the evolutionary and demographic history of populations and are theoretically "blind" to the effect of natural and anthropogenic selection that is sometimes very effective and rapid in changing morphological and production traits [ 46].

The three Y-chromosomal microsatellites were only used to reconstruct a minimum spanning network.

The obtained microsatellite profiles were used to reconstruct the distribution of genetic distances (1-BS) in simulated full sibs, simulated half sibs and simulated unrelated individuals.

The interspecies transferability made these microsatellite loci useful for future research aiming to reconstruct the phylogeographic patterns and the process of speciation among closely related species.
