Chromosomal Evolution
The possibility that the Peromyscus maniculatus complex of deer mice arose via the process described as "centrifugal speciation" (Brown, 1957) has been discussed by Bowers et a l . , 1973, Lawlor, 1974, Baker et al., 1975, and Greenbaum et a l . , 1978. This study was designed to yield additional da ta on the cytogenetics of three species of this complex in order to evaluate the "centrifugal sp...
متن کاملPeromyscus guardia (Rodentia: Cricetidae)
Peromyscus guardia Townsend, 1912 is a small, gray-brown cricetid commonly called the La Guarda deermouse. It is a Mexican endemic rodent from Angel de la Guarda Island and 2 islets off the northern tip of Angel de la Guarda in the Gulf of California. Populations of P. guardia were common up until the mid-1960s but have since declined. This species is currently listed as ‘‘Critically Endangered...
متن کاملPeromyscus boylii (Rodentia: Cricetidae)
Peromyscus boylii (Baird, 1855), the brush deermouse, is a common cricetid rodent in the southwestern United States and Mexico. It is a member of the Peromyscus boylii species group and has had a complicated taxonomic history because many former subspecies have been elevated to species. It is a medium-sized Peromyscus with small ears and a long, slightly bicolored and slightly haired tail that ...
متن کاملAmerican Society of Mammalogists Biochemical Polymorphism and Systematics in the Genus Peromyscus VII. Geographic Differentiation in Members of the Truei and Maniculatus Species Groups Author(s):
-Allozymic variation at 22 gene loci in populations of Peromyscus truei, P. difficilis, P. melanotis, and P. maniculatus is used to examine patterns of geographic differentiation. Samples of P. maniculatus collected throughout most of its immense range, from southern Mexico to northern Canada and from the Pacific to Atlantic coasts, are very similar in genic composition. Evidence from morpholog...
متن کاملHidden heterochromatin: Characterization in the Rodentia species Cricetus cricetus, Peromyscus eremicus (Cricetidae) and Praomys tullbergi (Muridae)
The use of in situ restriction endonuclease (RE) (which cleaves DNA at specific sequences) digestion has proven to be a useful technique in improving the dissection of constitutive heterochromatin (CH), and in the understanding of the CH evolution in different genomes. In the present work we describe in detail the CH of the three Rodentia species, Cricetus cricetus, Peromyscus eremicus (family ...
