Abstract excerpt
In the absence of pedigree information, the determination of genetic distinctness of populations can only be made by genetic methods. Using DNA fingerprinting on the North American captive herd of Speke's gazelle Gazella spekei, we were able to address two hypotheses. First, two new individuals w...
