Post-glacial partitioning of mitochondrial genetic variation in the field vole
Genetic markers are often used to examine population history. There is considerable debate about the behaviour of molecular clock rates around the population-species transition. Nevertheless, appropriate calibration is critical to any inference regarding the absolute timing and scale of demographic changes. Here, we use a mitochondrial cytochrome b gene genealogy,...Herman, Jeremy S ; Searle, Jeremy B

Post-glacial colonization of eastern Europe by the wood mouse, Apodemus sylvaticus: evidence of a northern refugium and dispersal with humans
The wood mouse Apodemus sylvaticus is an opportunistic rodent that is found throughout most of the European mainland. It is present on many islands around the margins of the continent and in northern Africa. The species has been the subject of previous phylogeographical studies, although these have focussed on the...
