Abstract DBI-9803898 Carolyn J. Ferguson This action funds an NSF/Alfred P. Sloan Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Molecular Evolution for 1998. These fellowships support studies involving the theoretical, comparative, computational, and/or experimental analyses of biological patterns and processes at the molecular level within the framework of organismic evolutionary change and adaptation. These studies also include the use of molecular data to address broader evolutionary questions. Each fellowship supports a research and training plan to be carried out in a sponsoring laboratory. The research and training plan for this fellowship is entitled using gene genealogies to assess effects of hybridization between species of Phlox plants in the Ozarks. The goal of this research is to evaluate the hypothesis that hybridization between closely related Phlox species has resulted in the populations recognized as Phlox pilosa ssp. ozarkana. Sequence data from variable, low-copy regions of the nuclear genome are being used for a phylogeographic analysis of hybridization and introgression.

DBI-9803898卡罗琳·J·弗格森这一行动为美国国家科学基金会/阿尔弗雷德·P·斯隆1998年分子进化博士后研究奖学金提供了资金。这些奖学金支持在有机体进化变化和适应的框架内，在分子水平上对生物模式和过程进行理论、比较、计算和/或实验分析的研究。这些研究还包括使用分子数据来解决更广泛的进化问题。每个研究金资助一项研究和培训计划，该计划将在一个赞助实验室进行。该奖学金的研究和培训计划的标题是使用基因谱系来评估奥扎克地区福禄克斯植物物种之间杂交的效果。这项研究的目的是评估一种假说，即近缘物种之间的杂交导致了被认为是Phlox Pilosa SSP的种群。奥扎卡纳。来自核基因组可变、低拷贝区域的序列数据正被用于杂交和导入的系统地理分析。
