Abstract: | Background Four hypervariable minisatellite loci were scored on a panel of 116 individuals of various geographical origins representing
a large part of the diversity present in house mouse subspecies. Internal structures of alleles were determined by minisatellite
variant repeat mapping PCR to produce maps of intermingled patterns of variant repeats along the repeat array. To reconstruct
the genealogy of these arrays of variable length, the specifically designed software MS_Align was used to estimate molecular
divergences, graphically represented as neighbor-joining trees. |
