Abstract With almost 2,600 species, Rodentia is the most diverse order of mammals. Here,
we provide an overview of changes in our understanding of the systematics of living rodents …

Genetic time‐series data from historical samples greatly facilitate inference of past
population dynamics and species evolution. Yet, although climate and landscape change …

Accurate taxonomy is central to the study of biological diversity, as it provides the needed
evolutionary framework for taxon sampling and interpreting results. While the number of …

Abstract Background Tree squirrels (Sciuridae, Sciurini), in particular the highly diverse
Neotropical lineages, are amongst the most rapidly diversifying branches of the mammal …

The tribe Oryzomyini is an impressive group of rodents, comprising 30 extant genera and an

High-throughput sequencing methods have facilitated obtaining large amounts of data from
degraded DNA, thus resulting in a dramatic increase in destructive sampling requests to …

Next generation sequencing (NGS) and genomic database mining allow biologists to gather
and select large molecular datasets well suited to address phylogenomics and molecular …

Classically, molecular phylogenetic trees of Phyllostomidae have been inferred using a
combination of a few mitochondrial and nuclear markers. However, there is still uncertainty …

By their past and present diversity, rodents are among the richest components of Caribbean
land mammals. Many of these became extinct recently. Causes of their extirpation, their …
