The Oligocene bottleneck and New Zealand biota: genetic record of a past environmental crisis.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Sept 1995

Cooper A, Cooper R A

Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) 12S sequences from the two New Zealand ratite orders, the kiwi and moa, indicate that each group represents a separate colonization event. However, the amount of mtDNA genetic diversity observed within each of the New Zealand groups is similar, and limited, which is not consistent with the ratite phylogenetic tree. We examine the Cenozoic (65-0 million years ago) geological history of...
