  1. ...roughly half a million years ago, are distinguished as subspecies (Harr et al. 2016): the Western European house mouse M. musculus domesticus, the Eastern European house mouse M. musculus musculus, and the Southeast Asian house mouse M. musculus castaneus. With a divergence time of fewer than 2 million...
  2. ...of Environmental Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo 060-0810, Japan Corresponding author: nosada@ist.hokudai.ac.jpAbstractThe house mouse (Mus musculus), which is commensal to humans, has spread globally via human activities, leading to secondary contact between genetically divergent subspecies. This pattern...
  3. .... As gene regulation requires interactions between loci, negative epistatic interactions between divergent regulatory elements might underlie hybrid incompatibilities and contribute to reproductive isolation. Here, we take advantage of a cross between house mouse subspecies, where hybrid dysfunction...
  4. ...mice bred at the beginning of the 20th century ( Morse III 1981 ; Silver 1995 ). The house mouse, Mus musculus , is a complex species comprised of several subspecies. Results of our past studies (Yonekawa et al. 1980 , 1982 ; Moriwaki 1994 ) and those of others ( Ferris et al. 1982 ; Bonhomme et al...
  5. ...in the HP comparison but only 485 in the interspecific CP comparison of the same tissue. In contrast, for testis the number of differently expressed genes was vastly higher in the interspecific CP (965) than in the HP (61) or HC (61) comparisons. Again, this suggests that regulatory evolution is highly...
  6. ...population history and demography of these two white rhinoceros subspecies and identified potential regions of selection in the NWR that may suggest local adaptation and divergent evolution from the SWR. Because of the comparative approach we employed using two closely related populations, this work may...
  7. ...of eutherian Y Chromosomes due to strong purifying selection to retain dosage-sensitive genes. In contrast, the ampliconic regions of the Y Chromosome, which contain testis-specific genes that encode the majority of the transcripts on eutherian Y Chromosomes, are rapidly evolving and are thought to undergo...
  8. ...organs. By contrast, several consomic strains show reduced testis and liver weights, although the relative weights of these organs in MSM/Ms are indistinguishable from those of the B6 strain ( Fig. 2 ). We also carried out extensive phenotyping of fat pad weight. We measured epididymal, perirenal...
  9. ...-specific evolution because of their potential for dramatic and irreversible mutation. The low-quality nature of the current chimpanzee genome assembly precludes the reliable identification of many of these differences. To circumvent this, we applied a method to optimally map chimpanzee fosmid paired-end sequences...
  10. ...; Case et al. 2012; Charchar et al. 2012). Like autosomal chromosomes, ChrX and ChrYare thought to have once been identical pairs that were free to recombine and exchange genetic material. Over the course of evolution, ChrY became unique from all other chromosomes due to the acquisition of a dominant sex...
