Mitochondrial DNA Analysis Clarifies Taxonomic Status of the Northernmost Snow Sheep (<i>Ovis nivicola</i>) Population

Currently, the intraspecific taxonomy of snow sheep (<i>Ovis nivicola</i>) is controversial and needs to be specified using DNA molecular genetic markers. In our previous work using whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis, we found that the population inhabiting Kharau...
