[The genetic links and species affiliation of the field mouse (Rodentia, Muridae, Sylvaemus) from the Pamir-Alai].
Analysis of variation in 30 presumptive biochemical loci in Sylvaemus sylvaticus pallipes from Tadjikistan was carried out with reference to the geographically closely related species S. uralensis. The data obtained support the genetic identity of pallipes, on the one hand, and suggest a rather low level of genetic divergence (D'Nei = 0.154, Pfd = 13) from an ancestral taxon, on the other hand. Analysis of genetic variation of diagnostic morphological features suggests that pallipes is the most extreme form of geographic population series of the uralensis species group. Both genetic and morphometric data suggest that S. pallipes is an allospecies of the uralensis species complex.
