Abstract excerpt
We obtained 282 base pairs of sequence for the mitochondrial control region of 70 individuals of Korean striped field mice Apodemus agrarius coreae and Apodemus agrarius chejuensis to determine the levels of genetic divergence between these morphologically distinct taxa. The DNA sequences showed more genetic diversity (pi) in A. agrarius coreae (2.98%) than in A. agrarius chejuensis (1.86%). Our data do not...
