Genetic variation in pika populations
Keyword(s):
Analysis of 26 genetic loci by horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was performed on 197 pikas from one Montana and four Colorado populations. Only four loci were polymorphic within populations and individual heterozygosity was low for a mammal [Formula: see text]. The Montana and Colorado populations were fixed for alternate allelles at three loci. Because of the insular nature of pika habitat, drift is probably important in determining low heterozygosities and genetic similarities measured between widely separated pika populations.
