Rates of evolution in ancient DNA from Adélie penguinsD M Lambert
Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 11 222, Palmerston North, New Zealand
Science 295:2270-3. 2002..Our calculated rates of evolution are approximately two to seven times higher than previous indirect phylogenetic estimates...
Is a large-scale DNA-based inventory of ancient life possible?D M Lambert
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 102 904, Auckland, New Zealand
J Hered 96:279-84. 2005..Hence, more generally, this study suggests that DNA barcoding might also help us detect other extinct animal species and that a large-scale inventory of ancient life is possible...
Ancient DNA and conservation: lessons from the endangered kiwi of New ZealandL D Shepherd
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 102 904 NSMC, Auckland, New Zealand
Mol Ecol 17:2174-84. 2008..We also use ancient DNA methodology to determine past species distributions for brown kiwi and great spotted kiwi whose bones are morphologically indistinguishable...
Microevolution and mega-icebergs in the AntarcticL D Shepherd
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Albany, Auckland, New Zealand
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:16717-22. 2005..The latter is likely to be precipitated by mega-icebergs that act to promote migration among penguin colonies that typically show strong natal return...
Ancient DNA recovers the origins of Māori feather cloaksK Hartnup
Institute of Natural Sciences, Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand
Mol Biol Evol 28:2741-50. 2011..Similar molecular approaches have the potential to discover a wealth of lost information from artifacts of endemic cultures worldwide...
Nuclear DNA sequences detect species limits in ancient moaL Huynen
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 102 904, Auckland, New Zealand
Nature 425:175-8. 2003..This study also illustrates that single-locus nuclear DNA sequences can be consistently recovered from ancient material...
Ancient genetic variation in one of the world's rarest seabirdsH A Lawrence
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand
Heredity (Edinb) 101:543-7. 2008..The modern population may have however lost four haplotypes present in the ancient populations...
Gene flow on the ice: genetic differentiation among Adélie penguin colonies around AntarcticaA D Roeder
Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 11-222, Palmerston North, New Zealand
Mol Ecol 10:1645-56. 2001..We consider this homogeneity in terms of the dispersal of individuals among colonies and the size of breeding groups and discuss our results in terms of the glacial history of Antarctica...
Mutational bias in penguin microsatellite DNAL D Shepherd
Allan Wilson Centre for Molecular Ecology and Evolution, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Massey University, Private Bag 102904, North Shore Mail Centre, Auckland, New Zealand
J Hered 96:566-71. 2005..Because we show that regions flanking repeat sequences exhibit this mutational bias, this cautions against the use of such regions for phylogeny reconstruction...
In vivo variability of TMA oxidation is partially mediated by polymorphisms of the FMO3 geneD M Lambert
Biochemical Genetics, Montreal Children's Hospital, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Mol Genet Metab 73:224-9. 2001..quot; With the use of substrate loading or with the interaction of other known modulators of FMO3 activity such as hormonal influences, these genotypes may predispose to mild TMAU...
