1. Phylogeographic history of South American populations of the silky anteater Cyclopes didactylus (Pilosa: Cyclopedidae)
Abstract Cyclopes didactylus, commonly called silky anteater, is the smallest and least studied of the anteaters. It is an arboreal species occurring in rainforests, ranging from southern Mexico to Central and South America, with an apparently disjoint distribution between Amazon and Atlantic rainforests in Brazil. Although seven subspecies are recognized, l

2. Molecular assessment of the phylogeny and biogeography of a recently diversified endemic group of South American canids (Mammalia: Carnivora: Canidae)
Abstract To investigate the evolution and biogeography of an endemic group of South American foxes, we examined mitochondrial DNA control region sequences for 118 individuals belonging to all six extant species of the genus Lycalopex. Phylogenetic and molecular dating analyses supported the inference that this genus has undergone a very recent and rapid radi

3. THE PROCESS OF Leishmania INFECTION - DISEASE AND NEW PERSPECTIVES OF PALEOPARASITOLOGY
Species of the genus Leishmania (Kinetoplastida, Trypanosomatidae) are causative agents of leishmaniasis, a complex disease with variable clinical spectrum and epidemiological diversity, constituting, in some countries, a serious public health problem. The origin and evolution of leishmaniasis has been under discussion regarding some clinical and parasitolog

4. Phylogeny and molecular dating of the cerato-platanin-encoding genes
The cerato-platanin family consists of proteins that can induce immune responses, cause necrosis, change chemotaxis and locomotion and may be related to the growth and development of various fungi. In this work, we analyzed the phylogenetic relationships among genes encoding members of the cerato-platanin family and computed the divergence times of the genes

5. Filogenia e biogeografia de Lonchocarpus s.l. e revisão taxonômica dos gêneros Muellera L.f. e Dahlstedtia Malme (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae, Millettieae) / Phylogeny and biogeography of Lonchocarpus s.l. and taxonomic revision of the genera Muellera L.f. and Dahlstedtia Malme (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae, Millettieae)
Lonchocarpus Kunth (Leguminosae, Papilionoideae, Millettieae) é predominantemente neotropical e inclui cerca de 150 espécies. Estudos considerando a sistemática de Lonchocarpus são necessários, devido à sua classificação infragenérica que apresenta problemas nomenclaturais e taxonômicos, correlacionados com a alta diversidade morfológica de seus r

6. Uso de marcadores orgânicos moleculares na determinação da origem da matéria orgânica em sedimentos do Sistema Estuarino-Lagunar de Cananéia-Iguape - SP - Brasil / Use of organic molecular markers in determination of the origin of the organic matter of Estuarine-Lagunar System of Cananeia-Iguape
This work has the objective in evaluate the sources of organic matter in sediments of the Cananéia-Iguape Estuarine-Lagunar System, using several geochemical markers. For the study area, 12 sample points were chosen, where the corers were obtained. For each point, the superficial 10 centimeters, sliced in each 2 centimeters, totalizing 60 samples. Granulome

7. Filogenia e evolução de Teiidae (Squamata: Reptilia) com ênfase em Cnemidophorus
This study aims to improve the knowledge of phylogeny, biogeography and diversity of Teiidae. The first chapter provides an analysis of phylogenetic relationships among teiid genera based on molecular and morphological data. The total combined analysis corroborated the monophyly of Tupinambinae, Teiinae, and cnemidophorines. We present an evolutionary scenar

8. The historical biogeography of Pteroglossus aracaris (Aves, Piciformes, Ramphastidae) based on Bayesian analysis of mitochondrial DNA sequences
Most Neotropical birds, including Pteroglossus aracaris, do not have an adequate fossil record to be used as time constraints in molecular dating. Hence, the evolutionary timeframe of the avian biota can only be inferred using alternative time constraints. We applied a Bayesian relaxed clock approach to propose an alternative interpretation for the histor

9. Estudos biossistematicos em especies de Hoffmannseggella H.G. Jones (Orchidaceae: Laeliinae) ocorrentes em complexos rupestres de altitude / Biosystematic studies in Hoffmannseggella H.G. Jones (Orchidaceae: Laeliinae) occuring in altitude rocky complexes of Brazil
A biosystematic study of the neotropical and Brazilian endemic genus Hoffmannseggella H. G. Jones was carried out. This genus is characterized by rupiculous habit, with varied-contrasting flowers colors. These species are distributed at high altitude rocky complexes, mainly in the Southeast (MG, RJ and ES) and Northeast (BA). The geographic distribution patt

10. Evolution of ascariasis in humans and pigs: a multi-disciplinary approach
The nematode parasite Ascaris lumbricoides infects the digestive tracts of over 1.4 billion people worldwide, and its sister species, Ascaris suum, has infected a countless number of domesticated and feral pigs. It is generally thought that the putative ancestor to these worms infected either humans or pigs, but with the advent of domestication, they had amp

11. Testing the Cambrian explosion hypothesis by using a molecular dating technique
Molecular studies have the potential to shed light on the origin of the animal phyla by providing independent estimates of the divergence times, but have been criticized for failing to account adequately for variation in rate of evolution. A method of dating divergence times from molecular data addresses the criticisms of earlier studies and provides more re
