In terms of interspecific relationships, the topography of India, Myanmar, and other Southeast Asian regions has been proposed to explain the speciation process and ecological niche diversification followed by range overlap after speciation. Recent research into mitochondrial DNA clocks has created the opportunity to reconstruct the detailed dynamics of M. musculus as affected by human activity. The resultant evolutionary scenarios are in good accordance with archaeological evidence observed in Asia, especially in China, Korea, and Japan.Australian Museum2020-11-25engjournal articleNAhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/80401http://www.australianmuseum.net.auhttps://doi.org/10.3853/j.2201-4349.72.2020.17270067-19752201-4349AA0080385XRecords of The Australian Museum725317323
