New mitochondrial DNA data affirm the importance of Pleistocene speciation in North American birds.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 May 2004

Johnson Ned K, Cicero Carla

Abstract excerpt

The timing of origin of modern North American bird species in relation to Pleistocene glaciations has long been the topic of significant discussion and disagreement. Recently, Klicka and Zink (1997) and Avise and Walker (1998) enlivened this debate by using calibrated molecular distance values to...
