Exclusion of melanocortin-I receptor (McIr) and Agouti as candidates for dominant black in dogs
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on molecular biology of dog pigmentation. The authors describe their study of molecular genetics of dominant black, and suggest that this coat color characteristics is caused by variations either in melanocortin-I receptor gene or in the Agouti gene.

A first assessment of genetic variation in Welwitschia mirabilis hook
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on Welwitschia mirabilis. The phylogeographic study of W. mirabilis has been carried out via the analysis of genetic variation between and within different locations in Namibia using random amplified polymorphic markers.
