Table 3.
Genetic variation at different taxonomic levels from the mitochondrial cytochrome-b gene for marsupials, bats, rodents, and artiodactyls. Values were obtained from published studies; in some cases, we calculated means and ranges. Values are sample size in parentheses, followed by mean and range of DNA sequence values as a percentage.
