Cytogenetics meets phylogenetics: a review of karyotype evolution in diprotodontian marsupials.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Westerman Michael, Meredith Robert W, Springer Mark S

Abstract excerpt

We have used a combined approach of phylogenetics and cytogenetics to describe karyotype evolution in Diprotodontia. Molecular relationships of diprotodontian marsupials have been clarified using a concatenation of 5 nuclear gene sequences from multiple exemplars of all extant genera. Our well-resolved phylogenetic tree has been used as a basis for understanding chromosome evolution both within this Order, as...
