Long term demographic monitoring of wader populations in non-breeding areas (2005)

...

Understanding numeric changes in wader populations requires knowledge of the demographic parameters underlying such changes, i.e. survival and recruitment. Data from long-term monitoring programmes...

Assessing fitness costs for transgenic Aedes aegypti expressing the GFP marker and transposase genes (2004)

Irvin, N, Hoddle, M S, O'Brochta, D A, Carey, B, Atkinson, P W

The development of transgenic mosquitoes that are refractory to the transmission of human diseases such as malaria, dengue, and yellow fever has received much interest due to the ability to transform...

The hobo transposable element of Drosophila can be cross-mobilized in houseflies and excises like the Ac element of maize.

Atkinson, P W, Warren, W D, O'Brochta, D A

The hobo transposable element from Drosophila melanogaster was found to be capable of excision, resulting in donor sites unlike those reported for any other transposable element currently known in...

Structure and Evolution of the Adh Genes of Drosophila Mojavensis

Atkinson, P. W., Mills, L. E., Starmer, W. T., Sullivan, D. T.

The nucleotide sequence of the Adh region of Drosophila mojavensis has been completed and the region found to contain a pseudogene, Adh-2 and Adh-1 arranged in that order. Comparison of the sequence...

Hermes, a Functional Non-Drosophilid Insect Gene Vector from Musca Domestica

O'Brochta, D. A., Warren, W. D., Saville, K. J., Atkinson, P. W.

Hermes is a short inverted repeat-type transposable element from the house fly, Musca domestica. Using an extra-chromosomal transpositional recombination assay, we show that Hermes elements can...
