Publications
Conservation genetics of amphibiansT J C Beebee
Biochemistry Department, School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QG, UK
Heredity (Edinb) 95:423-7. 2005..Quantitative genetic methods have demonstrated adaptive variation in life history traits of importance to fitness and therefore to population viability...
Low gene flow but high genetic diversity in the threatened Mallorcan midwife toad Alytes muletensisF J L Kraaijeveld-Smit
The Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology, University of Kent, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 7NS, UK
Mol Ecol 14:3307-15. 2005..If upstream locations or complete torrents go extinct, they are unlikely to be recolonized naturally. For conservation purposes, reintroductions of tadpoles to sites where local extinctions have occurred may therefore be advisable...
Amphibian phylogeography: a model for understanding historical aspects of species distributionsI Zeisset
School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton, UK
Heredity (Edinb) 101:109-19. 2008....
A comparison of single-sample effective size estimators using empirical toad (Bufo calamita) population data: genetic compensation and population size-genetic diversity correlationsT J C Beebee
School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN19QG, UK
Mol Ecol 18:4790-7. 2009..The results also provided evidence of genetic compensation in natterjack toads, and highlighted how the relationship between effective size and genetic diversity can vary as a function of geographical scale...
Defining population boundaries: use of three Bayesian approaches with microsatellite data from British natterjack toads (Bufo calamita)G Rowe
School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QG, UK
Mol Ecol 16:785-96. 2007..Implications of the analyses for the future conservation of Bufo calamita in Britain are discussed...
Contrasting population structures in two sympatric anurans: implications for species conservationE G Brede
School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QG, UK
Heredity 92:110-7. 2004..bufo assemblages. These observations highlight the difficulty of defining the boundaries of wild populations, and show how two broadly similar species can exhibit very different population dynamics...
Larval fitness, microsatellite diversity and MHC class II diversity in common frog (Rana temporaria) populationsI Zeisset
Department of Biochemistry, School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Brighton, UK
Heredity (Edinb) 104:423-30. 2010..Drift was probably the primary cause of genetic population structure at both types of loci. The use of functional loci to assess population genetic health should focus on the roles of specific alleles as well as overall diversity...
Molecular characterization of major histocompatibility complex class II alleles in the common frog, Rana temporariaI Zeisset
School of Life Sciences, University of Sussex, Falmer, Brighton BN1 9QG, UK
Mol Ecol Resour 9:738-45. 2009..The level of variation we found was similar to that in other amphibian MHC class II loci, such as those in Bombina bombina, Xenopus laevis and Ambystoma tigrinum...
