Explaining large mitochondrial sequence differences within a population sample

Explaining large mitochondrial sequence differences within a population sample

Mitochondrial DNA sequence is frequently used to infer species' boundaries, as divergence is relatively rapid when populations are reproductively isolated. However, the shared history of a non-recombining gene naturally leads to correlation of pairwise differences, resulting in mtDNA clusters t...
