Phylogeography and pleistocene evolution in the North American black bear.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 1997

Wooding S, Ward R

Abstract excerpt

To determine the extent of phylogeographic structuring in North American black bear (Ursus americanus) populations, we examined mitochondrial DNA sequences (n = 118) and restriction fragment length polymorphism profiles (n = 258) in individuals from 16 localities. Among the bears examined, 19 lin...
