Four external and 27 cranial characters of striped field mice (Apodemus agrarius) from 16 regions in China and Korea, representing six subspecies, were analyzed by multivariate methods. Three subgroups were recognized: the large-size form from Cheju island, Korea (subspecies chejuensis), the middle-size form from the Korean peninsula (subspecies coreae), and the small-size form from China (subspecies manchuricus, pallidior, ningpoensis, insulaemus). It was confirmed that four subspecies of striped field mouse from China can be classified into subspecies ningpoensis, as noted by Corbet (1978), and that subspecies coreae and chjuensis are distinct subspecies, as stated by Jones and Johnson (1965). In the future, morphometric analyses with striped field mice from Europe and Russia will be necessary to confirm subspecies classification of A. agrarius agrarius.

Four external and 27 cranial characters of Korean field mice (Apodemus peninsuluek from nine localities in eastern Asia, representing ave subspecies, were analyzed by multivariate statistical methods. Three forms were recognized: a large-size form from Korea (subspecies peninsulael, southern Manchuria (praeto4, and northern Manchuria (majofi a middle-size form from urestern Siberia (tschergal and southuvestern China (sowerbyi); a small-size form from northeastern China (sowerbyi). It is also revealed that variations among the three forms are clinal rind circular. It is confirmed that Apodemus peninsuloe could be classified into two subspecies (peninsulae and sowerbyl) within the distribution range in the continent of Asia, as noted tv Corbel (1978). However, it is found that subspecies peninsulae includes praetor and moior and that subspecies sowerbyi includes tscherga, indicating that subspecies tscherga is not the synonym of subspecies peninsulae, but that of subspecies sowerbyi.

The objective of this study was to describe the nature of the inheritance of jumping as a behavioral trait and to analyze quantitatively the jumping height as a measure of vigor in two subspecies of mice. Two subspecies of mice, Yonakuni wild mouse (Y) and $CF_{{\sharp}1}$ laboratory mouse (C), were used as the parental types. Reciprocal mating between these two subspecies was made to produce subsequently the first and second generations. The first generation was $F_1$ (YC) resulting from $Y\;male{\times}C\;female$, and $F_1{^\prime}$ (CY) from $C\;male{\times}Y\;female$. The second generation $F_2$ (YCYC) was from mating $F_1{\times}F_1$ and $F_2{^\prime}$ (CYCY) from $F_1{^\prime}{\times}F_1{^\prime}$. Individuals were treated with a set of direct current shock apparatus at six weeks of age to evoke jumping. The results showed that the ratio between jumping and non jumping mice (J: NJ) for C was 0%:100% (0:1), which means that all C did not jump throughout the experiment, whereas Y was 68%:32% (2:1); and the $F_1$ and $F_2$ showed 65%:35% (2:1) and 51%:49% (1:1), respectively. All $F_1{^\prime}$ and $F_2{^\prime}$ individuals jumped as indicated by the ratio 100%:0% (1:0) for both these two genetic groups. Of the jumped mice, average height of the first three jumping observed for pooled sexes in Y, $F_1$, $F_2$, $F_1{^\prime}$ and $F_2{^\prime}$ were 19.3 cm, 19.3 cm, 18.0 cm, 19.9 cm and 16.4 cm, respectively. The distribution of jumping height showed a tendency to be a normal distribution. The jumping activity and jumping height may be affected by some major genes and polygenes, respectively.

한국산 등줄쥐 3아종(Apodemus agrarius coreae, A. agrarius pallascens, and A. agrarius chejuensis)에 속하는 표본들의 형태적형질들을 단변량 및 다변량 분석방법에 의해서 분석하였다. 제주도산 A. agrarius chejuensis는 다른 한반도산 두 아종과 형태적인 차이가 있음이 밝혀졌으므로, 이 아종의 분류학적 위치를 재 규명할 연구가 계속되어야 한다고 결론지워졌다. 또한 A. agrarius coreae는 A. agrarius pallescens와 형태적으로 유사하다고 밝혀졌으므로, 후자는 전자의 synonym으로 결론내렸다.

중국과 한국에 서식하는 흰넓적다리붉은쥐(Apodemus Peninsulae) 3아종의 표본들의 4개 외부형질과 27개 두골형질들을 다변량통계 방법으로 분석하였다. 4개형(form)으로 나뉘 어졌는데, 한국의 월악산과 연천의 아종 peninsulae와 중국의 길림과 흑룡성의 아종 praetor 는 가장 큰 형이며, 중국 내몽고의 아종 praetor와 중국 산서와 산동성의 아종 sowerbyi는 큰형이고, 중국 북경의 아종 sowerbyi는 중간 형이며, 중국 신강성의 아종 sowerbyi는 작은 형이었다. Corbet(1978)는 아시아 대륙내의 흰넓적다리붉은쥐의 분포범위에서는 2아종 (peninsulae and sowerbyi)으로 분류된다고 하였지만, 형태적 형질을 이용한 본 연구에서 아 종 praetor와 peninsulae가 큰 형이었고, 아종 sowerbyi는 3개의 형태로 나뉠 정도로 다양했 으므로, 단지 2아종으로만 분류할 수가 없음이 밝혀졌다. 중국과 러시아의 다른 표본들을 포 함한 계속되는 연구가 본 종의 확실한 분류의 완성을 위해서 필요하다.

The present study was conducted to evaluate heterosis effects of body weight and jumping height for successive generations of rotational crossing using two subspecies of mice which are very different in body weight and in genetic relationship from each other. Domesticated laboratory mouse $CF_{{\sharp}1}$ (C) and Yonakuni wild mouse (Y) were used as materials. Two groups of rotational crossing was made according to the parent used at the beginning of crosses, C male$\times$Y female and Y male$\times$C female. These crosses were done to produce the first ($G_1$ and $G_1{^{\prime}}$), second ($G_2$ and $G_2{^{\prime}}$) and third generations ($G_3$ and $G_3{^{\prime}}$) with sire used was alternated. Individual body weights were weighed at 1 (wk1), 3 (wk3), 6 (wk6) and 10 weeks of age (wk10) and jumping heights were measured at six weeks of age (wk6). Only the first litter used. For body weight, results of this study showed that genetic group effects were significant (p<0.01) source of variation at all ages studied. Sex effects were significant (p<0.01) at wk3, wk6 and wk10, but not at wk1. Significant interaction effects (p<0.01) between genetic group and sex were found at wk6 and wk10. The C mice with large maternal effects produced heavier offspring body weight and crosses using sire of this subspecies maintained heavy weight compared to wild Y mouse sire that has small body size. Heterosis tended to exist at the rotational crossing started from Y male C female. For jumping height, effects of genetic group and sex were significant, sire and dam effects (heterosis) exhibited from the first to third generations, and no maternal effects were observed.

Data on body weights were analyzed in the four genetic groups from all possible crosses of two subspecies of mice to estimate average direct genetic effects (ADGE), average maternal genetic effects (AMGE) and heterotic effect (HE). The genetic groups used were $CF_{{\sharp}1}$ laboratory mouse (Mus musculus domesticus), Yonakuni wild mouse (Yk, Mus musculus molossinus yonakuni) and two reciprocal $F_1$ crosses of them, CY and YC. First symbol in the reciprocal $F_1$ represent subspecies of dam. Body weight at 1 (Wk1), 3 (Wk3), 6 (Wk6) and 10 weeks of age (Wk10) were analyzed from 258 mice of the four genetic groups. The model used to evaluate body weights included main effects of genetic group and sex, and interaction effect between genetic group and sex. The ADGE and the AMGE were estimated as deviations of Yk from $CF_{{\sharp}1}$. The HE was estimated from the differences between the reciprocal $F_1$ and the midparent mean. Results of this study showed that all effects, except sex and interaction between genetic group and sex at Wk1 and Wk3, were highly significant source variation (p < 0.01). The ADGE were positive and highly significant (p < 0.01) at all ages studied for both sexes, while the AMGE were highly significant at Wk3, Wk6 and Wk10. The ADGE were larger in contributing effect on body weight differences than the AMGE. The positive value of the HE were observed at all ages for males, while for females the positive effects occured from birth through weaning.

한국의 제주도에 서식하고 있는 등줄쥐의 한 아종인 Apodemus agrarius chejuensis의 분류학적 위치의 파악을 위하여, 아시아에 서식하는 등줄쥐중에 터키,중국,대만,만주 및 한국에서 채칩된 8아종(agrarius, ningpoensis, pallidior, chevrieri, insulaemus, manchuricus, coreae 및 chejuensis), 311마리의 표본들을 사용하였다. 4개 외부형질과 27개 두골형질들을 측정하였고 cluster, principal components 및 discriminant 분석등의 다변량분석을 수행하였다. 4개형(form)으로 나뉘어졌는데, chejuensis는 가장 큰 형이었고, 큰 형인 chevrieri는 Wang(1985)에 의하여 종으로도 기술된 바가 있다. 중간 크기의 형과 작은 크기의 형은 각각 coreae와 나머지 5개 아종(agrarius, ningpoensis, pallidior, in-sulaemus 및 manchuricus)이었으며, 연속적 변이를 나타냈다. 제주도의 chejuensis(가장 큰 형)는 등줄쥐의 다른 6개 아종(중간과 작은 크기의 형들)과 형태적 형질에 있어서 불연속적 차이를 보였으므로 신종으로 판단되지만, 신종으로서의 기재를 위해서는 연구가 더 필요하다고 결론지었다.
