Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Study reveals the genetic diversity of the wild house mouse

Article Description
For more than 100 years, house mice (Mus musculus) have been used as a key animal model in biomedical research. House mice are genetically diverse, yet their genetic background at the global level has not been fully understood. Previous studies have suggested that they originated in South Asia and diverged into three major subspecies, almost simultaneously, approximately 110,000-500,000 years ago; however, they have spread across the world with the migration of modern humans in prehistoric and historic times (∼10,000 years ago to the present day) and have undergone secondary contact, which has complicated the genetic landscape of wild house mice. In this study, we sequenced the whole-genome sequences of 98 wild house mice collected from Eurasia, particularly East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. Although wild house mice were found to consist of three major genetic groups corresponding to the three major subspecies, individuals representing admixtures between subspecies were more prevalent in East Asia than has been previously recognized. Furthermore, several samples exhibited an incongruent pattern of genealogies between mitochondrial and autosomal genomes. Using samples that likely retained the original genetic components of subspecies with the least admixture, we estimated the pattern and timing of divergence among the subspecies. The estimated divergence time of the three subspecies was 187,000-226,000 years ago. These results will help us to understand the genetic diversity of wild mice on a global scale, and the findings will be particularly useful in future biomedical and evolutionary studies involving laboratory mice established from such wild mice.
