A Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of the Tibetan Antelope (Pantholops Hodgsonii)
Genomics, Proteomics & Bioinformatics, 2005 Abstract To investigate genetic mechanisms of high altitude adaptations of native mammals on the Tibetan Plateau, we compared mitochondrial sequences of the endangered Pantholops hodgsonii with its lowland distant relatives Ovis aries and Capra hircus, as well as other mammals. The complete mitochondrial genome of P. hodgsonii (16,498 bp)
