Molecular phylogeny of the helicoid land snails (Pulmonata: Stylommatophora: Helicoidea), with special emphasis on the Camaenidae (2007)
Journal Article
Wade, C. M., Hudelot, C., Davison, A., Naggs, F., & Mordan, P. B. (2007). Molecular phylogeny of the helicoid land snails (Pulmonata: Stylommatophora: Helicoidea), with special emphasis on the Camaenidae. Journal of Molluscan Studies, 73(4), 411-415. https://doi.org/10.1093/mollus/eym030

The superfamily Helicoidea is a large and diverse group of land snails belonging to the Pulmonate suborder Stylommatophora. It has an almost worldwide distribution, absent from only sub-Saharan Africa, southern South America, New Zealand and some Pac...

The small subunit (SSU) ribosomal (r) RNA gene as a genetic marker for identifying infective 3rd juvenile stage Angiostrongylus cantonensis (2007)
Journal Article
Fontanilla, I. K., & Wade, C. M. (2008). The small subunit (SSU) ribosomal (r) RNA gene as a genetic marker for identifying infective 3rd juvenile stage Angiostrongylus cantonensis. Acta Tropica, 105(2), 181-186. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.actatropica.2007.10.007

We have developed a molecular method using PCR-direct sequencing to identify the infective 3rd juvenile stage of Angiostrongylus cantonensis, a nematode parasite of rodents that can accidentally infect humans and cause eosinophilic meningitis. We dem... Read More about The small subunit (SSU) ribosomal (r) RNA gene as a genetic marker for identifying infective 3rd juvenile stage Angiostrongylus cantonensis.

Global molecular phylogeography reveals persistent Arctic circumpolar isolation in a marine planktonic protist (2007)
Journal Article
Darling, K. F., Kucera, M., & Wade, C. M. (2007). Global molecular phylogeography reveals persistent Arctic circumpolar isolation in a marine planktonic protist. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 104(12), 5002-5007. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.0700520104

The high-latitude planktonic foraminifera have proved to be particularly useful model organisms for the study of global patterns of vicariance and gene flow in the oceans. Such studies demonstrate that gene flow can occur over enormous distances in t...
