Genetic and karyotypic structure in the shrews of the Sorex araneus group: are they independent?

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2006

Basset P, Yannic G, Hausser J

Abstract excerpt

The species of the common shrew (Sorex araneus) group are morphologically very similar but exhibit high levels of karyotypic variation. Here we used genetic variation at 10 microsatellite markers in a data set of 212 individuals mostly sampled in the western Alps and composed of five karyotypic taxa (Sorex coronatus, Sorex antinorii and the S. araneus chromosome races Cordon, Bretolet and Vaud) to investigate the...
