Genome size and microsatellites: the effect of nuclear size on amplification potentialTrenton W J Garner
Zoologisches Institut, Universitat Zurich Irchel, Zurich, Switzerland
Genome 45:212-5. 2002..Increasing genome size may affect amplification success negatively because of a decrease in target:nontarget DNA or by dilution of the available primer pool by nonspecific binding...
Genetic diversity across a vertebrate species' range: a test of the central-peripheral hypothesisTrenton W J Garner
Zoologisches Institut, Universitat Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Mol Ecol 13:1047-53. 2004..Although we cannot state definitively what has led to this distribution, the most likely explanation is that the range of Rana latastei expanded postglacially from a Balkan refugium...
Relatedness, body size and paternity in the alpine newt, Triturus alpestrisTrenton W J Garner
Zoologisches Institut, Universitat Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Proc Biol Sci 270:619-24. 2003..Instead, we hypothesize that females may mate initially for fertility assurance, but prefer less-related males as the most genetically compatible mates...
Response of the Italian agile frog (Rana latastei) to a Ranavirus, frog virus 3: a model for viral emergence in naïve populationsPeter B Pearman
Zoologisches Institut, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
J Wildl Dis 40:660-9. 2004..These experiments suggest the potential for ecological mechanisms to affect the level of exposure of tadpoles to Ranavirus and to impact transmission of viral pathogens in aquatic systems...
Genetic diversity, but not hatching success, is jointly affected by postglacial colonization and isolation in the threatened frog, Rana latasteiGentile Francesco Ficetola
Dipartimento di Biologia, Universita degli Studi di Milano, V Celoria 26, 20133 Milano, Italy
Mol Ecol 16:1787-97. 2007..It is possible that selection at least partially purged the negative effects of the ancestral loss of genetic diversity...
Anthropogenic influence on prevalence of 2 amphibian pathogensValerie St-Amour
Emerg Infect Dis 14:1175-6. 2008
