Variation in the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (1143 bp) was examined to estimate the phylogenetic relationships of taxa within the Peromyscus boylii species group. In addition, phylogenetic relationships among the aztecus, boylii, and truei species groups were addressed. Maximum-likelihood, neigh

The genus Oryzomys comprises 40 species arranged in several species groups. To test the monophyly of three Oryzomys species groups ("capito," nitidus, and subflavus), we analyzed, by distance, parsimony, and maximum-likelihood (ML), 801 bp of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b. Our results did not
Sequences of the cytochrome b (cyt b) mitochondrial gene show that the spiny mouse Acomys from Crete, known as the endemic species A. minous, is composed of two distinct maternal lineages ("A" and "B"). Group "A" sequences cluster with A. nesiotes (Cyprus) and group "B" sequences cluster with A. cil
