Genetic variation among populations of commensal house mice was studied across the territories of the Czech and Slovak Republics and in some adjacent areas of Germany. In total, 554 individuals taken from 49 localities were examined. Almost the entire territories of the Czech Republic and Slovakia were found to be occupied by Mus musculus, the only exception being the westernmost parts of the Czech Republic, where M. musculus meets the range of M. domesticus and forms a narrow belt of hybrid population. The mean frequency of t/+ heterozygotes found within the study populations was 13%.
