An integrative approach to the delimitation of pseudocryptic species in the Eucyclops speratus complex (Copepoda, Cyclopoida) with a description of a new species by Aleksandr Novikov, Dayana Sharafutdinova, Ekaterina Abramova, Tatyana Mayor, Elena Chertoprud

“…Eucyclops speratus (Lilljeborg, 1901) (Copepoda, Cyclopoida, Cyclopidae) was studied using various methods. Molecular genetic methods (comparison of COI and ITSn molecular markers) have shown that this species represents a species complex, and the following methods were used to search for differences between the species: analysis of qualitative and quantitative characters, linear morphometrics, landmark-based geometric morphometrics, and integumental pore pattern of the cephalothorax. …”

Determination of damaging SNP’s in SHANK3 gene with in silico methods by İrem Gülfem Albayrak, Şeyma Yektar, Süeda Kaya

“…There is considerable evidence associating SHANK3 mutations to autism spectrum disorder; hence, it is worthwhile to investigate the underlying molecular genetic mechanisms of the disease. Results This research uses in silico approaches such as SIFT, PolyPhen-2, I-Mutant 2.0, and Project HOPE to find harmful SNPs, which are the single nucleotide polymorphisms the most prevalent types of genetic variation in humans, in the SHANK3 gene. …”
