| hemoglobin polymorphism in the encinal mouse, peromyscus pectoralis. | horizontal starch gel electrophoresis revealed five hemoglobin phenotypes in natural populations of the encinal mouse, peromyscus pectoralis, from northeastern mexico. populations of the encinal mouse from texas, oklahoma, and northwestern and north central mexico were monomorphic for multiple-band phenotypes. analysis of the hemoglobin polymorphism indicates that two loci control this variation. | 1976 | 1259700 |
| southern plains woodrats (neotoma micropus) from southern texas are important reservoirs of two genotypes of trypanosoma cruzi and host of a putative novel trypanosoma species. | trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of chagas' disease, is an important public health and veterinary pathogen. although human cases are rare in the united states, infections in wildlife, and in some areas domestic dogs, are common. in 2008 and 2010, we investigated t. cruzi prevalence in possible vertebrate reservoirs in southern texas, with an emphasis on southern plains woodrats (neotoma micropus). infection status was determined using a combination of culture isolation, polymerase chain re ... | 2013 | 23127189 |
| molecular and morphologic data reveal multiple species in peromyscus pectoralis. | dna sequence and morphometric data were used to re-evaluate the taxonomy and systematics of peromyscus pectoralis. phylogenetic analyses (maximum likelihood and bayesian inference) of dna sequences from the mitochondrial cytochrome-b gene in 44 samples of p. pectoralis indicated 2 well-supported monophyletic clades. the 1st clade contained specimens from texas historically assigned to p. p. laceianus; the 2nd was comprised of specimens previously referable to p. p. collinus, p. p. laceianus, and ... | 2015 | 26937045 |
