Karyotypic Variation in Mammals of the Balkan Peninsula

摘要: This paper investigates chromosomal variation in a well-known animal group - the mammals. Chromosome research this has had long-term tradition Balkan Peninsula, and contributed significantly to our understanding of its regional biodiversity. Most studies have examined chromosomes small mammal species, within orders insectivores, chiropterans, rodents carnivores, whose size does not usually exceed that hedgehog or common hamster. contribution attempts summarise current knowledge karyotypes mammals, show importance data systematic phylogeographic research.
