Abstract

Analysis of 9 genetic loci by horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was performed on 203 specimens of South African representatives of the leporid genera Lepus and Pronolagus. Three loci were found to be polymorphic within samples of the various species of both genera: transferrin (Tf-I), esterase-1 (Es-I) and esterase-2 (Es-II). Only one system, carbonic anhydrase (CA-I), proved useful in species identification, this being restricted to the genus Lepus. Based on this system all Lepus specimens analysed would be assigned to one of two groups corresponding to the species L. capensis and L. saxatilis.

摘要

通过水平淀粉凝胶电泳对南非兔属（Lepus）和粗毛兔属（Pronolagus）的203个标本进行了9个基因位点的分析。发现两个属的不同物种样本中有三个位点具有多态性：转铁蛋白（Tf-I）、酯酶-1（Es-I）和酯酶-2（Es-II）。只有一个系统，即碳酸酐酶（CA-I），被证明可用于物种鉴定，且仅限于兔属。基于该系统，所有分析的兔属标本可分为两组，分别对应于南非山兔（L. capensis）和岩兔（L. saxatilis）这两个物种。
