DNA barcodes highlight genetic diversity patterns in rodents from lowland desert and Andean areas in Argentina
(John Wiley & Sons, 2022-02-14)
Rodents are an important component of South America fauna. Their high diversity
has motivated researchers to continually review their taxonomy, genetic diversity,
species limits, and phylogenetic relationships. Here, we ...
Chromosome variability and evolution in rodents of the tribe abrotrichini (rodentia, cricetidae, sigmodontinae)
(Springer Research Institute, 2019-11-30)
Rodents are a very diverse group with large chromosome variability. One of the most species rich linage in the Neotropics is the Sigmodontinae. Among them, the tribe Abrotrichini was recently defined and its taxonomy and ...
Phylogenetic relationships among cryptic species of the phyllotis xanthopygus complex (rodentia, cricetidae)
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, 2021-01-12)
The leaf-eared mouse, Phyllotis xanthopygus (Waterhouse 1837) is a widely distributed sigmodontine rodent in South America, with populations ranging from central Peru to southern Argentina and Chile. Previous morphological ...
Integrative analysis of chromosome banding, telomere localization and molecular genetics in the highly variable Ctenomys of the Corrientes group (Rodentia; Ctenomyidae)
(Springer, 2018-08-03)
The genus Ctenomys comprises about 70 species with great chromosome diversity. The Corrientes group is one of the most chromosomally variable lineages in the genus, where the diploid number (2n) varies from 41 to 70. In ...
