| The main objective of this study was to investigate the apolipoprotein (apo) E genotypes in Portuguese populations from mainland (Lisbon city) and from San Miguel Island, Azores' Archipelago (Ponta Delgada city) and to look for differences between these particular sites in apparently healthy subjects. Also, subjects with clinical diagnosis of atherosclerotic disease were investigated in San Miguel Island. In Lisbon, the genotypes distribution was: epsilon3/epsilon 3 > epsilon 3/epsilon 4 > epsilon 2/epsilon 3 > epsilon 4/epsilon 4 while that, for Ponta Delgada and regardless the health condition, was: epsilon 3/epsilon 3 > epsilon 2/epsilon 3 > epsilon 3/epsilon 4. Within Ponta Delgada control group, females and males had... |

| We analysed patterns of skull size and shape variation among populations of the Common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis) in the Central Balkans, particularly the effecs of insularity and the presence of the ecologically similar lacertid lizard species P. melisellensis. Two components of shape variation were analysed – size dependent (allometric) and size independent shape changes. The observed shape differentiation relating to insularity was greatly size-dependent and concordant to allometric shape changes which explained over 20% of variation in the skull shape in the analysed sample. The explorative analysis of size-independent shape changes revealed that populations of P. muralis which share habitat with P. melisellensis diverge from populations which do... |
