What influences the worldwide genetic structure of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus)?

Creator:

Alexander, Alana, Steel, Debbie, Hoekzema, Kendra, Mesnick, Sarah L., Engelhaupt, Daniel, Kerr, Iain, Payne, Roger, and Baker, C. Scott

Abstract:

The interplay of natural selection and genetic drift, influenced by geographic isolation, mating systems and population size, determines patterns of genetic diversity within species. The sperm whale provides an interesting example of a long-lived species with few geographic barriers to dispersal. Worldwide mtDNA diversity is relatively low, but highly structured...

An introduction to the analysis of shotgun metagenomic data

Creator:

Sharpton, Thomas J.

Abstract:

Environmental DNA sequencing has revealed the expansive biodiversity of microorganisms and clarified the relationship between host-associated microbial communities and host phenotype. Shotgun metagenomic DNA sequencing is a relatively new and powerful environmental sequencing approach that provides insight into community biodiversity and function. But, the analysis of metagenomic sequences is complicated...
