Multilocus coalescent analyses reveal the demographic history and speciation patterns of mouse lemur sister species.

BMC evolutionary biology - 24 Mar 2014

Blair Christopher, Heckman Kellie L, Russell Amy L, Yoder Anne D

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Debate continues as to whether allopatric speciation or peripatric speciation through a founder effect is the predominant force driving evolution in vertebrates. The mouse lemurs of Madagascar are a system in which evolution has generated a large number of species over a relatively recent time frame. Here, we examine speciation patterns in a pair of sister species of mouse lemur, Microcebus murinus...
