Genetic structure of wild bonobo populations: diversity of mitochondrial DNA and geographical distribution.

Genetic structure of wild bonobo populations: diversity of mitochondrial DNA and geographical distribution.

Bonobos (Pan paniscus) inhabit regions south of the Congo River including all areas between its southerly tributaries. To investigate the genetic diversity and evolutionary relationship among bonobo populations, we sequenced mitochondrial DNA from 376 fecal samples collected in seven study populatio...
