A molecular approach to comparative phylogeography of extant Malagasy lemurs.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 13 May 2003

Pastorini Jennifer, Thalmann Urs, Martin Robert D

Abstract excerpt

The lemurs of Madagascar provide an excellent model for exploring evolutionary diversification. This study investigates genetic divergence among most extant lemur taxa in relation to potential geographical boundaries to gene flow. For this purpose, approximately 2,400 bp of mitochondrial DNA (part of the COIII gene; ND3, ND4L, and ND4 genes; and five tRNAs) were sequenced in a total of 131 lemurs from 5 families,...
