| Summary: | (red bats), and the fourth was a member of the L. cinereus amplff ied polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products. Because and L. blossevilli, was found to be incongruent when compared bats. In addition, this study demonstrates that the intron be studied. borealis and L. blossevilli as sister taxa. Thus, this study depicting a sister-taxon relationship between L. seminolous from the Zinc finger exon. The resultant gene tree, Lasiurus were examined using restriction fragment analysis of region of Zfx/Zfy is variable within and among species of restriction sites located within the intron region upstream specff ic primers, paternally inherited genetic markers can species group (hoary bats). A phylogeny was constructed from suggests an alternative evolutionary pattern for the red the PCR products of the two genes could not be separated, The Zfx/Zfy nuclear gene loci from four species in the genus they were analyzed together and considered as a single locus. Three species were members of the L. borealis species group to an existing mitochondrial DNA phylogeny that depicted L. vespertillionid bats, and with the development of locus- |
