| Summary: | (RFLP's) and sequence variation in the ND3, ND4L, and along the Pacific Northwest coast in the early Analyses of restriction fragment length polymorphisms hics. and the mice of the between sister species within the P. maniculatus central and south western Yukon. This third lineage central stock. concordant with the speciation model in Which P keens cryptic lineage is as ancient as are the P. data indicated the data, however, indicated the presence of a third mtDNA displayed RFLP haplotypes identical to distances (Tamura and Nei 1993) between the P. identity and distribution of Peromyscus from Yukon isolation in glacial refugia in southwestern Yukon and lineage generally sympatric with P. keens in south maniculatus and P. keens in this region. The sequence maniculatus and P. keens lineages. Additionally, these maniculatus-RFLP-cryptic and the P. maniculatus and maniculatus-RFLP-cryptic lineage. The average genetic ND4 mitochondrion genes were used to determine the P. maniculatus-RFLP-cryptic lineages are recent peripheral isolates from an ancestral P maniculatus Pleistocene, predating the Wisconsin. This pattern is populations is proposed to have resulted from presence and occasional sympathy of Peromyscus respectively, This suggests that the P. maniculatus- RFLP- species group. Genetic differentiation among these Territory, Canada and southeastern Alaska. The RFLP the P. keens lineages were .043 and .046, those of P. maniculatus and thus, was termed the P. values of genetic distance are comparable to those |
