  • Title: Phylogenetic relationships among laboratory and wild-origin Mus musculus strains on the basis of genomic DNA RFLPs.
    Author: Santos J, Cole Y, Pellicer A.
    Journal: Mamm Genome; 1993 Sep; 4(9):485-92. PubMed ID: 7906967.
    Abstract:
    Genetic distance measures between the laboratory mouse strains C57BL/6J and RF/J and the wild-origin Mus musculus mouse strains CAST/Ei, MOLF/Ei, POSCH I, and CZECH II were estimated by allelic patterns revealed by RFLP analysis. These results suggest phylogenetic relationships indicating that the mouse strains related to the subspecies M.m. domesticus (RF/J, POSCH I and C57BL/6J) are more closely related to the CAST/Ei strain (derived from M.m. castaneus) than to the strains CZECH II (M.m. musculus) and MOLF/Ei (M.m. molossinus). Furthermore, the hybrid strain C57BL/6J is more closely related to POSCH I (M.m. poschiavinus) than to RF/J as calculated by the method distance measures of Cavalli-Sforza and Edwards (Evolution 21,550, 1967), Nei's minimum (Am. Natural. 106,283, 1972) and unbiased minimum (Genetics 89,583, 1978), Edwards (Biometrics 27,873, 1971; Genetic Distance, p. 41, 1974) and Rogers modified (1986).
