Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple Geographic Origins of Commensalism and Complex Dispersal History of Black Rats
Ken Aplin,Hitoshi Suzuki,Alejandro A. Chinen,R. Terry Chesser,José ten Have,Stephen C. Donnellan,Jeremy J. Austin,Angela Frost,Jean-Paul Gonzalez,Vincent Herbreteau,François Catzeflis,Julien Soubrier,Yin-Ping Fang,Judith H. Robins,Elizabeth Matisoo-Smith,Amanda D. S. Bastos,Ibnu Maryanto,Martua H. Sinaga,Christiane Denys,Ronald A. Van Den Bussche,Chris J. Conroy,Kevin C. Rowe,Alan Cooper +22 more
TL;DR: Three of the four phylogenetic lineage units within R. rattus show clear genetic signatures of major population expansion in prehistoric times, and the distribution of particular haplogroups mirrors archaeologically and historically documented patterns of human dispersal and trade.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temporal, spatial, and ecological modes of evolution of Eurasian Mus based on mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis of the newly and previously available sequences support recognition of four subgenera within Mus, with an unresolved basal polytomy, and indicates that the subgenus Mus contains three distinct 'species groups'.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary and biogeographic history of weasel-like carnivorans (Musteloidea).
Jun J. Sato,Mieczysław Wolsan,Francisco Juan Prevosti,Guillermo D’Elía,Colleen Begg,Keith Begg,Tetsuji Hosoda,Kevin L. Campbell,Hitoshi Suzuki +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that Musteloidea emerged approximately 32.4-30.9 million years ago in Asia, shortly after the greenhouse-icehouse global climate shift at the Eocene-Oligocene transition and that the morphological adaptations of badgers, martens, weasels, polecats, minks, and minks each evolved independently more than once within Mustelidae.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Phylogenetic View on Species Radiation in Apodemus Inferred from Variation of Nuclear and Mitochondrial Genes
TL;DR: It was shown that these four lineages diverged within a short period of evolutionary time, suggestive of a radiation event and may have a correlation with the notion that deciduous broadleaf forests remained in Central East Asia through the late Tertiary to the present, while those in Europe to a large extent had disappeared by the Pliocene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol‐Metabolizing Enzyme Polymorphisms and Alcoholism in Japan
TL;DR: Genetic polymorphisms of the ADH and ALDH genes, but not of the P450IIE1 gene, influence the risk of developing alcoholism in Japanese.
