分子粪便学在中缅树鼩中的应用可能性 Application of Molecular Scatology in Tree Shrews, Tupaia belangeri

中缅树鼩(Tupaia belangeri)作为东洋界特有的小型哺乳动物，主要处于横断山山脉地区，其已被证实与灵长目亲缘性较近，并逐渐在医学上被应用为实验动物，但是对于其野外的研究甚少。本文以分子粪便学为基础从分子标记、性别鉴定以及巢域确定等方面阐述了其应用在野外中缅树鼩研究中的可能性，为进一步研究中缅树鼩及使其成为标准实验动物化化与合适的实验动物疾病模型提供了理论依据。 Tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri) as the small mammals in oriental endemic, mainly in Hengduan Mountains region, has been proved to be close affinity with the primates, and gradually became an experimental animal. But the study of the wild is very little. This paper, based on molecular sca-tology, expounds the possibility of molecular scatology being employed in the study of Tupaia belangeri in wild area in these aspects of molecular marker, sex determination and home range con-firmation. It lays a foundation for the further study in Tupaia belangeri, making it become the standard experimental animals and an appropriate experimental animal disease model provides a theoretical basis.
