Genetic diversity, mutagenesis and dispersal of Antarctic mosses – a review of progress with molecular studies Antarctic Science, 2000 (Ref: 9341)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We are using techniques of molecular genetics to investigate the extent of genetic diversity in Antarctic mosses. The RAPD technique has proven especially useful in demonstrating that these mosses exhibit extensive genetic variation (levels being similar to those in temperate regions)…

RAPD analysis of genetic variation and dispersal of the moss Bryum pseudotriquetrum from Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. Polar Biology, 1998 (Ref: 8412)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The RAPD technique (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) was used to assess the level of genetic diversity in Bryum pseudotriquetrum from Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. Isolates were collected from two transects…

Genetic variation and dispersal of Bryum argenteum and Hennediella heimii populations in the Garwood Valley, Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. Antarctic Science, 1998 (Ref: 8413)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A detailed study was made of the extent of genetic variation within populations of two moss species, Bryum argenteum and Henediella heimii, from the Garwood Valley in Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. RAPD technology was used to analyse over 30 clumps of each species…

RAPD analysis of genetic variation and dispersal of the moss Bryum argenteum in Ross Island and Victoria Land, Antarctica. Polar Biology, 1999 (Ref: 8417)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The RAPD technique (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) was used to assess the level of genetic diversity in Bryum argenteum from Ross Island and Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica. Samples were collected from three transects at different sites…

Genetic diversity, colonisation and dispersal of mosses in the Ross Sea Region of Antarctica. Antarctic Ecosystems: Models for Wider Ecological Understanding, 2000 (Ref: 8416)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We are using molecular genetics techniques to investigate (a) the overall level of genetic diversity in Antarctic mosses, (b) the spatial arrangement and mutation levels within populations, (c) their taxonomic relationships and origins, (d) the effect of climate change on mutation levels, and (e)…

Genetic diversity and dispersal of the moss Sarconeurum glaciale on Ross Island, East Antarctica. Molecular Ecology, 1999 (Ref: 8415)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The extent of genetic variation and dispersal mechanisms were investigated over short distances of 1 – 100 m and up to 3 km, by the RAPD technique, for the moss Sarconeurum glaciale at three locations on Ross Island, Antarctica. At Arrival Heights, genetic variation occurred within single colonies…

Genetic relationships between populations of Bryum argenteum from Australia, New Zealand and Antarctica. The Bryologist, 1998 (Ref: 8167)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Bryum argenteum sensu lato is a cosmopolitan moss found in many countries of the world, and is one of only a few moss species present in continental Antarctica. We have used RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) technology to investigate how this moss has colonised and spread in Antarctica…
