Two distinct mtDNA lineages among captive African penguins in Japan.

The Journal of veterinary medical science - 1 Apr 2014

Murata Michiko, Murakami Masaru

Abstract excerpt

The African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) is one of the world's most endangered seabirds. In Japan, although the number of African penguins in captivity continues to increase, genetic data have not been collected for either wild or captive populations. To reveal genetic diversity and characterization in captive African penguins, we analyzed the nucleotide sequences of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) from a sample of...
