Chromosomal Evolution in Three Species of Murid Rodents of Taiwan

臺灣產三種鼠類之染色體進化

摘要


臺灣三種鼠類:小黃腹鼠(Rattus losea)、高山白腹鼠(Niviventer culturatus)及刺鼠(N. coxingi)的核型已被定出,其染色體套數(2N)與染色體臂數(FN)分別如下:小黃腹鼠(42,60)、高山白腹鼠(46,52)及刺鼠(46,54)。臺灣產小黃腹鼠之核型除X染色體以外,其餘皆與泰國產相同。所有的Niviventer種類之雙套染色體數皆為46,而染色體臂數則為50至64不等。由高山白腹鼠及刺鼠的核型可看出,彼此並非最接近的姐妹種(sister taxa),此一結果支持了「此兩鼠種在台灣的分布乃多次由亞洲大陸遷入的結果」之假說。

Three species of Taiwanese murid rodents, Rattus losea, Niviventer cuituratus, and N. coxingi, are karyotyped. Their diploid chromosome number (2N) and fundamental number (FN) are as follows: R. losea, 2N = 42 and FN = 60; N. cuituratus 2N = 46 and FN = 52; and N. coxingi 2N = 46 and FN = 54. R. losea has the same karyotypic complements as its cqnspecific population from Thailand except for the X chromosome. All the species of Niviventer share the same 2N = 46, but vary in their FNs which range from 50 to 64. The karyotypic complements of N. culturatus and N. coxingi indicate that they are not sister taxa, supporting the hypothesis that their presence in Taiwan was derived from multiple incursions from the Asian continent.
