Nuclear markers confirm taxonomic status and relationships among highly endangered and closely related right whale species.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Mar 2005

Gaines C A, Hare M P, Beck S E, Rosenbaum H C

Abstract excerpt

Right whales (genus: Eubalaena) are among the most endangered mammals, yet their taxonomy and phylogeny have been questioned. A phylogenetic hypothesis based on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation recently prompted a taxonomic revision, increasing the number of right whale species to three. We critically evaluated this hypothesis using sequence data from 13 nuclear DNA (nuDNA) loci as well as the mtDNA control...
