[Genetic divergence of Mus musculus musculus and M. m. hortulanus].

Genetic divergence between house mouse and gleaner mouse from different regions of Ukraine was estimated by electrophoresis at 26 loci. Four diagnostic loci were established among these species: IDH-1, Est-1,2,4. Genetic distance between species is 0.217, which is in accordance with genetic differences between other species of the genus Mus. The results obtained give evidence that house and gleaner mouse are different species.
