• Molecular characterization of breeds and its use in conservation. (2009, background): “that different loci with the same fragment length will be contributing to the same band, thus biasing upwards the estimates of allele frequencies (Vekemans et al., 1990; Caballero et al., 2008).”
• How to track and assess genotyping errors in population genetics studies (2004, background): “1999), as well as comigration of nonhomologous fragments (O’Hanlon & Peakall 2000; Vekemans et al. 2002).”
• Worldwide genotyping of castor bean germplasm (Ricinus communis L.) using AFLPs and SSRs (2008, background): “In the case of AFLPs, homoplasy can arise from co-migration of similarsized fragments with slightly different base composition (Vekemans et al. 2002), and SSRs are known for exhibiting mutation rates that often exceed migration (Richard and Thorpe 2001).”
• Structure of the genetic diversity in black poplar (Populus nigra L.) populations across European river systems: Consequences for conservation and restoration (2008, methodology): “0 (Vekemans et al., 2002) was used to calculate gene diversity statistics and estimate significance of Fst estimates from the AFLP data.”
• Range wide versus local patterns of genetic diversity in hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) (2005, background): “0 (Vekemans et al. 2002, available at http://www.ulb.ac.be/sciences/lagev/).”
• Epigenetic correlates of plant phenotypic plasticity: DNA methylation differs between prickly and nonprickly leaves in heterophyllous Ilex aquifolium (Aquifoliaceae) trees (2013, background): “Only fragments 150 base pairs in size were considered to reduce the potential impact of size homoplasy (Vekemans et al., 2002).”
• Molecular characterisation of grapevine yellows associated phytoplasmas of the stolbur-group based on RFLP-analysis of non-ribosomal DNA (2015, methodology): “The relatedness between phytoplasma strains was calculated according to LYNCH and MILLIGAN (1994) using the AFLP-SURV software (VEKEMANS et al. 2002).”
• The relationship between population genetic structure and pelagic larval duration in coral reef fishes on the Great Barrier Reef (2006, methodology): “Analogues of co-dominant genetic diversity measures including within-population diversity He (here Hj), total heterozygosity Ht and mean heterozygosity across populations Hs (here Hw) were calculated following the methods of Lynch and Milligan (1994) using AFLPSurv 1 (Vekemans et al. 2002).”
