Range-wide mtDNA phylogeography yields insights into the origins of Asian elephants.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Mar 2009

Vidya T N C, Sukumar Raman, Melnick Don J

Abstract excerpt

Recent phylogeographic studies of the endangered Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) reveal two highly divergent mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages, an elucidation of which is central to understanding the species's evolution. Previous explanations for the divergent clades include introgression of mt...
