Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial DNA is a small, well characterized chromosome which is transmitted across the generations in the maternal lineage, independently of nuclear DNA. mtDNA acts in effect as a robust, species specific biological clock and tracer which can be used to follow the evolution and spread by geo...
