Variabilidade genética de duas populações de Astyanax altiparanae da bacia do alto rio Paraná.
O presente trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar a estrutura genética de duas populações de A. altiparanae da bacia do alto rio Paraná (Paranapanema e Tietê) através da análise de 11 marcadores moleculares do tipo microssatélite.Organizado por: Sílvio Ricardo Maurano; AQUACIÊNCIA 2012
Reporting social behaviours of mixed-species troops formed by Callithrix jacchus and Callithrix penicillata (Primate, Callitrichidae)
In New World primates, mixed-species troops have been reported. Here, we analysed the performance of affiliative and agonistic behaviours of Callithrix jacchus and Callithrix penicillata living in mixed groups. For this purpose, we recorded the interaction of the individuals from two groups located in Bauru city, in the state of São Paulo (Brazil). Our data show that in both groups, affiliative behaviours appeared more frequently than agonistic ones. We concluded that there is cohesion inside the mixed-species troops observed. We suggest that a deeper knowledge about the social behaviour of mixed-species troop species certainly may be useful in projects linked with the management of the impact caused by them
