Abstract excerpt
Cytochrome b sequences (401 bp) were used to investigate the phylogenetic relationships of a group of South American rodents. The study focused on the tribe Oryzomyini (Family Muridae, Subfamily Sigmodontinae) and two of its genera, Oryzomys and Oligoryzomys, especially the latter. Genetic distan...
