“…Currently, more than 500 complete mtDNA genomes from vertebrates have been determined, including livestock and free-living species such as those from the family Cervidae (Wada et al, 2010). Because of complete genome-wide sequences not being available for all species, much of the analyses in the discovery of nuclear DNA markers of non-model organisms are based on comparative work with already sequenced genomes of other "model" species (Hall, 2009). Nevertheless, the phylogenetic relationships among Cervidae and Bovidae species have been until now investigated using both mitochondrial and nuclear markers (Decker et al, 2009;Wada et al, 2010;Zhang and Zhang, 2012).…”

Abstract. This study presents the application of BovineSNP50 BeadChip for genome-wide screening of two taurine breeds (Bos primigenius taurus) and Zebu (Bos primigenius indicus), and two species from the family Cervidae: red deer (Cervus elaphus) and fallow deer (Dama dama). The aim of the paper was to evaluate the use of bovine array for cross-species genotyping and analyse single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) distribution, diversity within groups of animals and genetic distance among analysed species. The number of polymorphic SNPs decreased with the increase of phylogenetic distance between species, which also reflected a decrease in call rate (from 99.54 to 61.19 %). The minor allele frequency (MAF) values were significantly different between species and ranged from 0.18 ± 15 (Zebu) to 0.26 ± 0.14 (Pinzgau). The subsequent analyses of genetic diversity were based on the polymorphic loci detected in cervids. Differences in the expected heterozygosity was low (0.06), on average 0.34. In analysed groups the F IS values were close to zero, which suggested low SNP variance within them. The value of F IT indicated homozygote excess in evaluated individuals. Analysis of molecular variance revealed that most of the variability was distributed within all individuals. Observed genetic distances within and across groups of animals suggested that taurine cattle and cervids were more distant. The study results showed that genotyping array prepared for model species can be applied not only to organisms for which was developed, but can be also successfully used in closely related and more phylogenetically divergent species.

This study was designed to summarize grain size data (% sand, % silt and % clay) from mid-west United States water bodies to determine the percent of sites where sediment samples are primarily depositional sediment (more than 50% silt/clay) or non-depositional (less than 50% silt/clay). Sediment sampling protocols were reviewed for all the grain size measurements to determine if non-random or random sampling was conducted. Based on four studies with a total of 269 sites, the mean percent of sites dominated by the silt/clay fraction was approximately 5%. This value is very low and certainly shows that depositional areas are spatially limited in mid-west water bodies. The ecological relevance of this result is that silt/clay areas where Hydrophobic Organic Compounds (HOCs) may be found are spatially limited for mid-west water bodies. Before judging HOC ecological risk it is critical to know how sites for sediment collection were selected, using either a non- random or random approach, and this information also needs to be carefully considered when assessing potential ecological risk of HOCs in ambient mid-west sediment. A random sampling design on a watershed scale that includes spatially extensive sediment mapping is recommended in areas where HOC ecological risk is suspected.
