Genes & genetic systems, 2022 The long-tailed hamster Cricetulus longicaudatus is a dominant rodent in farmland of Shanxi Province, China, but little is known about its genetic diversity and population structure. In this study, the genomic DNAs of individuals from 13 populations captured in different fields of Shanxi were extracted and amplified by six pairs of microsatellite ...
