Barriers to gene flow between naturally hybridizing taxa reveal the initial stages of speciation. Reduced hybrid fertility is a common feature of reproductive barriers separating recently diverged ...

To most people, all small rodents are virtually indistinguishable from each other, and as such, they are lumped together and considered to be mice of one kind or another. In Webster’s Third New ...

Scientists have revealed the genetic structure and diversity, and inferred the population history, of the wild house mouse across Europe and Asia. The house mouse, Mus musculus, is the most common ...

The species used in a Rice University genetic study of mice were collected from 15 locations in Europe and Africa. The green region indicates the range of Mus spretus, the Algerian mouse, while the ...

Researchers have created genome-wide, high-resolution genetic maps of 100 inbred mouse strains. Compared with wild-derived strains, most of today's classical lab strains have limited genetic diversity ...

Scientists have revealed the genetic structure and diversity, and inferred the population history, of the wild house mouse across Europe and Asia. Scientists have revealed the genetic structure and ...
