Abstract

Abstract: Maternity genetic diversity of the subgenus Eospalax in Gansu province was evaluated by studying the molecular phylogenesis of this subgenus. The nucleotide complete sequence variations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and cytochrome B gene (1 140 bp) were examined. Sequence data were obtained from 31 samples of the subgenus Eospalax from 11 different places in Gansu province and 21 other sequences were acquired from GenBank. Four Gansu species were Qinling zokor, Gansu zokor, Bailey’s zokor, and Smith’s zokor. Two phylogenetic trees were constructed, one from the 31 near complete Cytb sequences from our experiment and 52 Cyt which were aligned with GeneBank. Using these results and related software, we analysed the change of Cytb gene sequences and discussed the classification and phylogenesis of four species of the subgenus Eospalax. This study provides the molecular basis for the phylogenesis of the subgenus Eospalax.
