In these ten years, cytogenetics, particularly human and mammalian cytogenetics, has had some remarkahle advances which nearly caused the classic karyotyping method to hecome obsolete overnight. These advances included the various handing tech­ niques, correlation hetween gene activities and chromosomes in somatic cell hyhrids, localization of special classes of DNA in chromosome regions hy means of in situ hyhridization, and others. In mammalian cytogenetics and cytotaxonomy, many new facts have also heen uncovered. For example, chromosome handing analyses showed that the arrangement of genetic material in mammals has heen relatively con­ servative hecause related species may have identical handing patterns. A good portion of karyotypic variahility is attrihuted to total chromosome or total arm translocations. Another source of variahility is the result of the amount and the distrihution of constitutive heterochromatin (C-hands). In a numher of species, entire chromosome arms may he made of C-hand material. Thus the concept of fundamental numher must he modified in such cases. Karyological analyses have also contrihuted suhstantially to systematics of mammals. In many cases, cytogenetic findings confirm taxonomists' con­ tention regarding species relationships. For example, a numher of taxono­ mists consider that Peromyscus {Ochrotomys) nuttalli should not he clas­ sified as a memher -of Peromyscus. Cytological data revealed that Ochrotomys nuttallinot only possesses a diploid numher (2n=52) different from all Peromyscus species (2n=48), hut also has different handing pat­ terns, indicating remote phylogenetic relationships. More positively, cyto­ genetic work has assisted taxonomy in identifying taxa which are morpho­ logically similar. The cottonrat Sigmadon hispidus has a prevailing diploid numher of 52, hut the discovery of cotton rat populations in Arizona with a diploid numher of 22 emphatically indicates that the two forms are genetically so distaut that they cannot he classified as one species. Extensive data have heen accumulated to demoostrate that in many taxa, especially Rodentia, the chromosomes are so polymorphic that it is difficult to assign one karyotype as the standard for the species. On the other hand, in other taxa, e.g., Cetacea, Felidae, etc., many species share the same or very similar karyotype. Thus in the former cases, many karyotypes are required to represent one species whereas in the latter cases, one karyotype may suffice for a numher of species. Since this Atlas series was initiated hefore the discovery of new facts, and since cytogenetic data were ac­ cumulated during the last decade, deficiency of pictorial presentation in one and occasional duplication in the other are evident when one examines the entire Atlas series. In all previous volumes we placed 50 folios for each installment. In the great majority of cases, each folio contained a male karyotype and a female karyotype of one species, hut in a few instances we presented more than one species per folio. In the present volume, however, we present more than 50 folios since Volume 10 is the last planned volume of this series. This does lll iv I lntroduction not mean that in the future additional compilations of karyotypes will not he appended; hut these will not he done on a regular hasis. Even though conventional karyotypes are now somewhat out of date, they still provide hasic information regarding chromosome constitution of a species, a suhspecies, or a population. In fact, even in handing analyses, standard karyotypes are still necessary for the exact morphology of each chromosome hecause the morphological definition of handed chromosomes is not as sharp as that of the conventionally stained preparations. Thus we helieve that this Atlas series will remain useful as a general reference. lt is premature to compile handed karyotypes since not many species have heen analyzed in detail and only a few whose handed chromosomes have heen competently worked out and standard nomenclature agreed upon. How­ ever, it is comforting to see that technological advances in the recent years have made remarkahle improvements of our tools and some significant changes in our concepts in mammalian cytogenetics, cytotaxonomy and cytoevolution.

Rose1 and Erin A. Dreelin2, Department of Biological Sciences, Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia 23529-0266 ABSTRACT The objectives of our study were to determine the age of maturity, litter size, and the timing of the breeding season of marsh rice rats (Oryzomys palustris) of coastal Virginia. From May 1995 to May 1996, monthly samples of rice rats were live-trapped in two coastal tidal marshes of eastern Virginia, and then necropsied. Sexual maturity was attained at 30-40 g for both sexes. Mean litter size of 4.63 (n = 16) did not differ among months or in mass or parity classes. Data from two other studies conducted in the same county, one of them contemporaneous, also were examined. Based on necropsy, rice rats bred from March to October; breeding did not occur in December-February. By contrast, rice rats observed during monthly trapping on nearby live-trap grids were judged, using external indicators, to be breeding year-round except January. Compared to internal examinations, external indicators of reproductive condition were not reliable for either sex in predicting breeding status in the marsh rice rat.

    Small Mammal Habitat Utilization of a Feedstock Agroforest System in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Forest Resources by KEVIN DALE WOOD, B.S. University of Arkansas-Monticello, 2011 August 2013 University of Arkansas-Monticello This Thesis Approved for Recommendation to the Graduate School. Thesis Director: Dr. Don White, Jr. Thesis Committee: Dr. Robert E. Kissell, Jr. Dr. John Hunt Dr. Philip A. Tappe Dean, School of Forest Resources Dr. Jimmie Yeiser Dean, Graduate School ii ABSTRACT In recent years, there has been an increasing effort to expand the production and use of biofuels to ease our dependence on foreign oil. A concern associated with the expansion of bioenergy feedstock production is that marginal land currently forested or managed for wildlife habitat in conservation programs will be converted to corn or soybean production due to high market values of these crops. Cottonwood (Populus deltoides)-switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) agroforests could provide suitable habitat for a number of wildlife species on this type of land while providing needed bioenergy feedstocks. Small mammals are ecologically important for a variety of reasons, and play a vital role in the enhancement and preservation of biological diversity. Little is known about how small mammals would utilize these biofuel feedstock agroforest systems. I used multivariate analysis to describe variation in composition and abundance of small mammals within a feedstock agroforest system in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain in southeast Arkansas. I used canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) in program to produce ordination diagrams. I recorded 261 individuals of 5 taxa of small mammals across 4 seasons combined.
