Ord's kangaroo rat, Dipodomys ordii, is the most wide ranging of the 22 species of kangaroo rats which are native to North America. Kangaroo rats have highly developed hind legs that allow them to hop like kangaroos. They are unusual among mammals because their highly specialized renal systems allow them to survive with very little water in extreme More...desert environments. The diploid genome of Ord's kangaroo rat is organized in 35 pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes. Less...
