What do functionally important DNA sites, those scrutinized and shaped by natural selection,
tell us about the place of humans in evolution? Here we compare≈ 90 kb of coding DNA …

The evolutionary relationships of the eutherian order Insectivora (Lipotyphla sensu stricto)
are the subject of considerable debate. The difficulties in establishing insectivore phylogeny …

We sequenced 2167 base pairs (bp) of mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b and 16S, and
1390bp of nuclear genes BRCA1 and ApoB in shrews taxa (Eulipotyphla, family Soricidae) …

The Praomyini tribe is one of the most diverse and abundant groups of Old World rodents.
Several species are known to be involved in crop damage and in the epidemiology of …

Molecular phylogeny of soricid shrews (Soricidae, Eulipotyphla, Mammalia) based on 1140
bp mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (cytb) sequences was inferred by the maximum …

The spatial genetic structure of common hamsters (Cricetus cricetus) was investigated using
three partial mitochondrial (mt) genes and 11 nuclear microsatellite loci. All marker systems …

Forest or mouse shrews (Myosorex) represent a small but important radiation of African
shrews generally adapted to montane and/or temperate conditions. The status of …

The crocidurine shrews include the most speciose genus of mammals, Crocidura. The origin
and evolution of their radiation is, however, poorly understood because of very scant fossil …

В обзоре разбираются основные молекулярные маркеры, используемые в
филогенетических рекон струкциях млекопитающих,-митохондриальные и ядерные …

Aim We examined the relationship between host species richness and parasite species
richness using simultaneously collected data on small mammals (Insectivora, Rodentia and …
