Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of house mice
TL;DR: The house mouse is the most recent phylogenetic offshoot of the genus Mus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochemical diversity and evolution in the genus Mus.
François Bonhomme,Josette Catalan,Janice Britton-Davidian,Verne M. Chapman,Kazuo Moriwaki,Eviatar Nevo,Louis Thaler +6 more
TL;DR: Thirteen biochemical groups of wild mice from Europe, Asia, and Africa belonging to the genus Mus are analyzed at 22–42 protein loci and Phylogenetic trees are proposed and patterns of biochemical evolution are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid chromosomal evolution in island mice
Janice Britton-Davidian,Josette Catalan,Maria da Graça Ramalhinho,Guila Ganem,Jean-Christophe Auffray,Ruben Capela,Manuel Biscoito,Jeremy B. Searle,Maria da Luz Mathias +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that house mice on Madeira have an unexpected chromosomal diversity, the evolution of which is independent of adaptive processes, relying instead on geographic isolation and genetic drift.
Journal ArticleDOI
The house mouse progression in Eurasia : a palaeontological and archaeozoological approach
TL;DR: A palaeontological and archaeozoological survey has allowed us to establish the different steps in the colonization of western Eurasia and northern Africa by the house mouse Mus musculus and suggest that the distribution of this subspecies extended much further west than it does nowadays, at a time when M. musculus domesticus was restricted to the Mediterranean zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postzygotic isolation between the two European subspecies of the house mouse: estimates from fertility patterns in wild and laboratory-bred hybrids
TL;DR: No sterile phenotypes in wild males from the hybrid zone, although testis weight tended to decrease in the centre of the transect, and the involvement of the X chromosome in male sterility thus could not be assessed.
