Adaptive evolution of β-globin gene in subterranean in South America octodontid rodents.

Gene - 10 Mar 2021

Pejo Mariana, Tomasco Ivanna H

Abstract excerpt

The convergent evolution of subterranean rodents is an excellent model to study how natural selection operates and the genetic bases of these adaptations, but the study on the different taxa has been very uneven and still insufficient. In the octodontoid caviomorph rodent superfamily there are two independent lineages where they have recently evolved into totally underground lifestyles: the genera Ctenomys...
