Confrontation of morphological and molecular data: The Praomys group (Rodentia, Murinae) as a case of adaptive convergences and morphological stasis

Phylogenetic relationships in a group of 21 African rodent species designated as the Praomys group (Murinae) were investigated using morphological characters and sequence data from the complete mitochondrial cytochrome b gene and nuclear IRBP gene fragment (840 bp). The molecular results confirm the...
