Blue turns to grey - Palaeogenomic insights into the evolutionary history and extinction of the blue antelope ( <i>Hippotragus leucophaeus</i> )

2022-04-13

Abstract excerpt

The blue antelope ( Hippotragus leucophaeus ) is the only large African mammal species to have become extinct in historical times, yet no nuclear genomic information is available for this species. A recent study showed that many alleged blue antelope museum specimens are either roan ( H. equinus ) or sable ( H. niger ) antelopes, further reducing the possibilities for obtaining genomic information for this exti...
