Population genetics of the house mouse, Mus musculus/domesticus, has become a âhotâ area of research, in which the biochemicalâmolecular approach has largely replaced the more traditional morphologicalâanatomical methods of investigation. In this essay â commemorating Professor Uzi Ritteâs recent passing â the authors, one of whom abandoned mouse genetics some 30 years ago, offer a historical perspective in which they point out the confusion that has accompanied mouse taxonomy from its modern beginnings. They then tender their view of the problems associated with the biochemicalâmolecular studies of mouse taxonomy and speciation. They conclude with a plea to rely less on abstract models and more on empirical data and mouse biology, and for a return to the HeracliteanâDarwinian view of nature in taxonomy.
