Abstract

For the first time, the diversity of nucleotide sequences of different mtDNA loci (the cytochrome b gene and the control region) of the Baikal seal (Pusa sibirica) based on of several spatio-temporal samples was studied. It is shown that in the evolutionary time scale the population formed recently and is in the stage of demographic expansion.

Keywords

Baikal seal, Pusa sibirica, genetic diversity, cytochrome b gene, mtDNA control region
