The Iberian Peninsula is a repository for biodiversity, presenting high levels of endemism in both plants and animals. In this peninsular region, brook lampreys confined to small, isolated river basins evolved in allopatry giving rise to evolutionary lineages, as revealed by mitochondrial DNA markers. For a better understanding of the taxonomic status and relationships of Iberian populations of the genus Lampet...
This study aims at contributing to the knowledge on genetic and morphological diversity of European Lampetra. Mitochondrial DNA was used to infer the phylogeography of this genus, and further define conservation units in the Iberian Peninsula. Morphological data was then combined to describe three new species endemic to Portugal. These results support evidence of the high diversity of the Iberian Peninsula, a r...
PURPOSE: To establish structure-function correlations across the visual field, to investigate disease progression in Best macular dystrophy (BMD), by correlating structural damage with retinal function as assessed by the combination of psychophysics and multifocal electrophysiology. METHODS: Spatial achromatic and chromatic contrast sensitivities (probing red-green and blue-yellow pathways) were assessed using ...
