Asian Elephant Evolutionary Relationships: New Perspectives from Mitochondrial D-Loop Haplotype Diversity

Haplotype data from mt D-loop sequencing studies are reviewed and previous population-scale hypotheses pertaining to the origin and diverse genetic profiles of Asian elephants are highlighted to shed light on ongoing evolutionary processes.

Standard Identification Certificate for Legal Legislation of a Unique Gene Pool of Thai Domestic Elephants Originating from a Male Elephant Contribution to Breeding

The study results showed very low nucleotide diversity D-loop sequences and high variations in microsatellite genotyping, with an extensive variation of the gene pool estimates from different populations, which suggests that the optimal male selection during breeding could aid in maintaining the genetic diversity among captive populations.
