Low among-population genetic differentiation in Chinese bisexual Artemia populations
Article Abstract:
Low among-population genetic differentiation has been studied in bisexual Artemia (Crustacea: Anostraca), brine shrimp, populations in salt lakes of China, largely from Inner Mongolia. A positive relationship was seen between genetic differentiation and geographical distance. Overall F(sub.ST) values, however, are low with populations about 1000 km apart having average F(sub.ST) values of 0.05-0.1. Populations 100 km apart have no observed genetic differentiation.

Field and allozyme studies investigating optimal mating success in two sympatric spring-ephemeral plants, Trillium erectum and T. grandiflorum
Article Abstract:
Field and allozyme studies have been carried out to study optimal mating success in two sympatric spring-ephemeral plants, Trillium grandiflorum and T. erectum. Allozyme results only partially supported patterns that were seen in the outcrossing. Ants' moving of seeds, post-pollination and post-fertilization selection, rare long-distance gene-flow events, and/or the severity of inbreeding depression may be factors.
