Odocoileus virginianus (white-tailed deer) and O. hemionus (mule deer) are sympatric
across much of North America. Molecular evidence suggests that up to 24% of individuals in …

We used the polymerase chain reaction to amplify a 359-base-pair portion of the
mitochondrial-cytochrome-A gene from 157 deer in the genus Odocoileus. The deer …

Odocoileus hemionus (mule deer and black-tailed deer) and Odocoileus virginanus (white-
tailed deer) are sympatric in western North America and are characterized by distinct …

Despite their economic, cultural, and ecological significance, the phylogenetic relationships
among North American deer remain uncertain, due in part to discordance between …

Restriction enzyme analyses of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of six artiodactyl species and
two bear species were employed to estimate genetic divergence between groups. Estimates …

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was used to characterize patterns of geographic variation
among white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) populations in the southeastern United …

The white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) is an important, sustainable-use species in
Mexico; 14 subspecies are widely distributed throughout the Mexican territory. The criteria …

Sympatric populations of white-tailed deer and mule deer (Odocoileus virginianus and
Odocoileus hemionus, respectively) on a west Texas ranch share a common mitochondrial …

Abstract The American black bear (Ursus americanus) experienced a significant range
contraction during the 19th and 20th centuries due to a variety of anthropogenic factors …

Hybridization is a natural process at species‐range boundaries that may variably promote
the speciation process or break down species barriers but minimally will influence …
