Mitochondrial DNA: Part 1 – Overview We begin with an overview. What ismitochondrial DNA, how it is inherited and why is it useful for genealogy? Mitochondrial DNA: Part 2 – What Do Those Numbers Mean? Next, we look at your results and decode what all the numbers mean. It’s easy,...

The mutation rate of mitochondrial DNA is usually very high, and with enough sequence length the error in reconstructing the true species' genealogy should be small (even if the definition of 'enough sequence length' can be problematic; Ballard and Whitlock, 2004). If the time scale for ...
Most of our recent gains in knowledge on animal diversity rely on morphological characteristics and mitochondrial (mt) DNA variation. Concordant results based on both have led to an unprecedented acceleration in the identification of new species and enriched the field of taxonomy. However, discordance...
(non-Bantu), Nilo-Saharan, Afro-Asiatic, and Arabic. Several sequences had unknown population labels but did have admixture analysis results from other studies or the FTDNA database, in which case the dominant sub-Saharan population was used. We used the ace function in the ape package68and...
These are known as HVR1 (16024–16383) and HVR2 (57–372), and mutation analysis in these regions is commonly used for commercial genealogy investigation. Although mutations leading to impaired function usually demonstrate heteroplasmy, haplotypes are usually assumed to be homoplasmic. There is ...

We present here an investigation of mitochondrial DNA diversity in domestic yaks reared across the QTP. We also surveyed the corresponding DNA variation of 13 wild yaks, eight of which were collected from a single wild population. This maternal sequence is better than other nuclear marker in illus...
000 km2. We performed genetic analyses on them and added data collected for 56Gffindividuals from 4 additional sampling sites in the basin. The 529pb partial mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase II (mtDNA COII) sequences totaling 485 were analysed for genetic differentiation, structuring and ...
