| genetic variability among paralaudakia microlepis (blanford, 1874) (sauria: agamidae) populations in the iranian plateau. | the small scaled rock agama, paralaudakia microlepis, is an agamid lizard distributed across many parts of the iranian plateau. in the present paper, our aim is to study the genetic variability among different populations of this species in iran. based on the nd4 mitochondrial gene fragment, we uncovered high levels of genetic variability between three main clades of the species in iran. based on these results, the south khorasan and fars populations diverged firstly and then the kerman and the ... | 2018 | 30651529 |
