Abstract excerpt
Patterns of restriction-endonuclease site and length variation at the nuclear rDNA locus (18S + 28S rRNA gene complex) were examined in rodents. Of the 164 restriction sites mapped for seven species, 22 were conserved (mapping to the 18S, 28S, and 5.8S genes and ITS1) in all three Onychomys species as well as in Mus musculus and in three closely related peromyscine rodents, Peromyscus boylii, P. eremicus, and...
