Abstract

For 35 years, from 1984 to 2019, in the southern Baikal region, observations of changes in the system of additional chromosomes of Korean field mouse (Apodemus peninsulae) were conducted in five regions. The number and structure of morphotypes of additional chromosomes remained statistically constant. Analysis of B chromosome systems demonstrates stability and low variability of statistical indicators over a 35-year period, as well as the lack of statistical differences between samples of different years.
