A phylogenetic survey using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has
identified four major P element subfamilies in the saltans and willistoni
species groups of Drosophila. One subfamily, containing about half of the
sequences studied, consists of elements that are very similar to the
canonical (and active) P element from D. melanogaster. Within this
subfamily, nucleotide sequence differentiation among different copies from
the same species and among elements from different species is relatively
low. This observation suggests that the canonical elements are relatively
recent additions to the genome or, less likely, are evolving slowly
relative to the other subfamilies. Elements belonging to the three
noncanonical lineages are distinct from the canonical elements and from one
another. Furthermore, there is considerably more sequence variation, on the
average, within the noncanonical subfamilies compared to the canonical
elements. Horizontal transfer and the coexistence of multiple,
independently evolving element subfamilies in the same genome may explain
the distribution of P elements in the saltans and willistoni species
groups. Such explanations are not mutually exclusive, and each may be
involved to varying degrees in the maintenance of P elements in natural
populations of Drosophila.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences that include (a) a part of the
cytochrome b gene, (b) two tRNA genes, and (c) a part of the noncoding
D-loop region of 31 Anguilla japonica (Japanese eel) and 1 A. marmorata
collected from Taiwan, Japan, and mainland China were determined to
evaluate the population structure of Japanese eel. Among 30 genotypes
identified from the 31 Japanese eel mtDNAs sequenced, there are 58 variable
sites, predominantly clustered at the D-loop region. The phylogenetic tree
constructed by the unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean shows
neither significant genealogical branches nor geographic clusters.
Furthermore, the sequence-statistics test reveals little, if any,
significant genetic differentiation. These results indicate that the 31
Japanese eels might come from a single population. Analysis of sequence
variation in mtDNA by using the relationship between the number of
segregating sites and the average number of nucleotide differences under
the neutral mutation hypothesis reveals that neutral mutation acts as a
major factor influencing the evolutionary divergence of the Japanese eel
mitochondrial genome sequenced, especially in the noncoding region.

Fishery characteristics and livelihood status of fishers at Tono Reservoir, Ghana, were investigated between January 2015 and June 2016. Data on fisher demography, fishing gears, fishing methods, perceptions of the state of fish stocks, management practices, income and consumption of fishers were obtained through structured interviews. Censuses of fishers and fishing gears were conducted through direct observation and counts. The population of fishers was 950 and the majority (74%) of the sampled respondents fell within the ages of 24–41 years. Gillnet, cast net, trap and hook and line were the four main gears utilised. Illegal methods of fishing observed included the use of mosquito nets (nets with mesh <1.0 cm) and the use of brewer’s waste (pito mash) as bait. Brycinus nurse, Synodontis spp., Parailia spiniserrata and Chrysichthys spp. were perceived to have disappeared from the reservoir. The fishers were unaware of the existence of any fisheries regulations, hence there was no adherence to management practices. Their daily income was derived mainly from fishing. The incidence of poverty among fishers was low (8%). The Tono Reservoir has a great potential for supporting livelihood if it is properly managed. 相似文献
