Caracterización molecular de poblaciones venezolanas de Sigmodon hirsutus (Rodentia: Cricetidae)
Recent phylogenetic studies based on cytochrome b gene sequence, have determined that the species historically known as Sigmodon hispidus (Rodentia) from South America comprises a species S. hirsutus of paraphyletic origin. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that populations from Venez...
