Phylogenetic study of genus Tupaia (scandentia : tupaiidae) using morphological and molecular analyses
Morphometric and phylogenetic analyses were done on six species of genus Tupaia from Malaysia. Morphological study was done on T.montana, T. tana, T.minor, T.glis, T.gracilis, and T.picta. The primary objective of this study was to examine the intraspecific and interspecific relationships of the gen...
