A phylogeny and timescale for the living genera of kangaroos and kin (Macropodiformes : Marsupialia) based on nuclear DNA sequences (2008, methodology): “DNA was extracted following Kirsch et al. (1990) or Meredith et al. (2008).”
Phylogenetic Relationships and Classification of Didelphid Marsupials, an Extant Radiation of New World Metatherian Mammals (2009, background): “…(Nilsson et al., 2004; Amrine-Madsen et al., 2003; Horovitz and Sánchez-Villagra, 2003; Asher et al., 2004; Sánchez-Villagra et al., 2007; Meredith et al., 2008; Beck, 2008), then such transformations might be didelphid synapomorphies, or they could be synapomorphies of the unnamed…”

An osteology‐based appraisal of the phylogeny and evolution of kangaroos and wallabies (Macropodidae: Marsupialia) (2010, background): “Recent evidence from nuclear genes (Meredith et al., 2008) and mitochondrial RNA (Phillips & Pratt, 2008) provide strong support for a close relationship between macropodoids and phalangerids.”
