Selected features of marsupial genetics

Genetica, 1993
As a consequence of the ancient separation of the marsupial and eutherian lineages, comparative genetical studies of these two mammalian taxa can be particularly informative. The potential for marsupial genetical research has been enhanced by the development of laboratory colonies of three 'model' species--Macropus eugenii, Monodelphis domestica and ...
