Creation of a pollen database for Mediterranean flowering plants
The genetic database represents a sequence standard
matric with which to compare the sequence of plant species that honeybees use for
honey production. The ability geo-referencing the honey samples through these DNA
investigations will allow us to eventually monitor for introduction of alien species as
well as possible cases of species hybridisation.peer-reviewe
Molecular barcoding applied to the Mediterranean turtles biological matrices
Barcoding allows the characterisation of tiny samples from living species and the
differentiation of morphologically similar specimens. It is a practical tool that can be
used in cases of damaged samples and it is also useful for taxonomical characterisation
of specimens at immature developmental stages.peer-reviewe
Genetic database development for the characterization of Sicilian sheep population
There are various studies on European sheep, but few datasets have been developed based on the population of Sicilian sheep. The reference database will include allele frequencies at each locus and will determine genetic parameters for Sicilian ovine species selection.peer-reviewe
