Geographical isolation in plant populations is becoming increasingly significant due to environmental changes such as habitat ...

Such isolation need not only be the product of encircling water. Dr Wilson’s new study also found “genetic islands” on the British mainland.

A genetic sexing strain (GSS) is a strain that allows male-only releases for SIT applications. With GSS, a given selectable marker, usually a phenotypic trait, is linked to sex to aid in the sorting ...

This mutation is a product of genetic isolation. Between 1608 and 1763, around 8000 settlers from France established themselves in what is now Quebec.

Genetic isolation is generally considered to be a disadvantage for a gene pool’s population fitness. “It’s always a good thing for a population to be in contact with other populations ...
