Differences in spatial genetic population structure between African and Asian elephant (Loxodonta africana, Elephas maximus) as revealed by sequence analysis of the mitochondrial Cyt b gene

Year: 1998

Type: article

Abstract: To assess spatial genetic population structure of both extant elephant species, we investigated sequence variation in 369bp of the mitochondrial Cyt b gene in 23 specimes of African elephant Loxodonta africana (Blumenbach, 1797) from three regions in the Southern part of Africa.
