Phylogeny and historical demography of economically important rodents of the genus Arvicanthis (Mammalia: Muridae) from the Nile Valley: of mice and men

2008-03-01

Abstract excerpt

The present study clarified the taxonomy, phylogeny and historical demography of semicommensal Nile rats (Arvicanthis) from the Nile Valley in Sudan. Nile rats are important crop pests and zoonotic disease reservoirs and are closely associated with agricultural settlements in the Nile Valley. Phylogenetic analysis of the complete cytochrome b gene (1140 bp) of 23 individuals from six localities in Sudan (from two...
