Biochemical Genetics of the Pocket Gopher Genus Geomys, and its Phylogenetic Implications
Description:
Electrophoretic techniques were utilized for the demonstration of variation in 22 proteins from 24 natural populations of four species ( G. bursarius, G. pinetis, G. arenarius and G. personatus ) of the Geomys complex of pocket gophers. Of the 24 structural loci , 19 were considered to be polymorphic. Five of the six esterases contributed greatested to the polymorphism while non-esterase proteins generally showed low values. In the GeoMys complex of pocket gophers in this study,selection appear…
