We propose a novel, transparent and very simple algorithm to analyze middle-range correlations in genomic nucleotide sequences. Analysis by this algorithm of the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database demonstrates that all four nucleotides cluster in the genomic nucleotide sequences of eukaryotes on the scale of several hundred base pairs. In prokaryotes, the clustering is weak but still evident. The non-dominant three bases are deficient in the clusters, while A is the most deficient nucleotide in the clusters of C, and vice versa, and G is the most deficient nucleotide in the clusters of T, and vice versa. The algorithm also detects CG islands, extending over 1 kb, in vertebrate sequences. In plants, the CG islands are shown to be much smaller, if they exist at all. A clustering tendency is also exhibited by the TA doublet. Other doublets do not cluster. We observe no strong correlation between nucleotides separated in genomes by > 1 kb.

The phylogenetic relationships among gudgeons that represent most nominal taxa within Gobio gobio sensu lato were examined by mitochondrial and nuclear genome sequencing. The molecular analyses confirmed the separate generic status of Gobio as a monophyletic group and revealed 15 Eurasian lineages divided into two main clades, the Northern European and the Ponto-Caspian. The validity of eleven nominal taxa as distinct species was confirmed, gudgeons from the Volga River basin were described as a new species G. volgensis, and three revealed phylogenetic lineages were submitted for a comprehensive revision as "species-in-waiting". The species G. gobio showed a wide range extending from the British Isles to the Black Sea coast and overlapped the areas of several other species. Four pure lineages were detected in the middle Danube River basin. The Crimean Peninsula was found to be a region with the occurrence of individuals of hybrid origin. This region will require special investigation to define species participating in hybridization events, and to establish further steps for the conservation of endemic native gudgeon species. A simple diagnostic method, based on different lengths of the PCR products, called "S7indel diagnostics" is presented for further taxonomic investigations in the genus Gobio.
