| abstractText | Molecular aspects of murine evolution were studied by sequencing, and subsequently comparing, introns of the Y-chromosomal tspy genes from Apodemus agrarius, A. sylvaticus, A. flavicollis, Mus platythrix (subgenus Pyromys), M. booduga (subgenus Leggada), and from species of the subgenus Mus, including M. cervicolor, M. macedonicus and M. spretus. Estimates of nucleotide substitution rates in these lineages were in perfect agreement with phylogenetic data previously published by She et al. (1990), Catzeflis et al. (1992; 1993), and Lyon et al. (1996). The only exception was provided by a comparatively late divergence of M. spretus and M. macedonicus. Our data also suggest that M. booduga diverged from the subgenus Mus about 3 Myr ago.
