Genetic variation in Asiatic lions and Indian tigers.

Electrophoresis - 1 Aug 1997

Shankaranarayanan P, Banerjee M, Kacker R K, Aggarwal R K, Singh L

Abstract excerpt

Previous reports have suggested that Asiatic lions and tigers are highly inbred and exhibit very low levels of genetic variation. Our analyses on these species have shown much higher degrees of polymorphism than reported. Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis of 38 Asiatic lions, which exist as a single population in the Gir Forest Sanctuary in India, shows an average heterozygosity of 25.82% with...
