Genomics reveals distinct evolutionary lineages in Asian elephants

2025-02-21

Abstract excerpt

The Asian elephant (Elephas maximus), a keystone species, faces significant threats from habitat loss, poaching, and population fragmentation. Understanding the evolutionary history of its subspecies is essential for developing targeted conservation strategies and mitigating risks to their survival.This study introduces, for the first time, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data from predominantly wild-origin Asian el...
