Phylogeography and molecular systematics of the Peromyscus aztecus species group (Rodentia: Muridae) inferred using parsimony and likelihood.
Mice of the Peromyscus aztecus species group occur at mid to high elevations in several mountain ranges in the highlands of Middle America (Mexico and Central America), a region of high endemicity. We examined the biogeography of this group by conducting phylogenetic analyses of 668 bp of the mitochondrial cytochrome b (cyt b) gene. Phylogenetic analyses under both parsimony and likelihood fram...
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 کاملPhylogeography and systematics of the Peromyscus eremicus species group and the historical biogeography of North American warm regional deserts.
Phylogeographic relationships among 26 populations from throughout the geographic range of the Peromyscus eremicus species group are described based on sequence data for a 699-bp fragment of the mitochondrial DNA COIII gene. Distance, maximum-likelihood, and maximum-parsimony analyses of phylogenetic trees generated under four separate character-weighting strategies and representing five altern...
متن کاملMolecular systematics and phylogeography of the Plethodon elongatus species group: combining phylogenetic and population genetic methods to investigate species history.
Plethodon elongatus and P. stormi (Caudata: Plethodontidae) are Pacific Northwest endemic species which occur in northwestern California and southwestern Oregon. Studies on these salamanders have resulted in differing taxonomic conclusions, but the underlying historical hypotheses, at both inter- and intraspecific levels, have never been examined in a molecular framework. Here, representatives ...
متن کاملMolecular phylogeography and systematics of the arid-zone members of the Egernia whitii (Lacertilia: Scincidae) species group.
We assembled a molecular phylogeny for the arid-zone members of the Egernia whitii species group to test Pianka's [Zoogeography and speciation of Australian desert lizards: an ecological perspective, Copeia (1972) 127-145] hypothesis that habitat specificity to the three major arid-zone vegetation communities is the primary cause of lizard speciation within the arid interior of Australia. This ...
