MtDNA Analysis of the Upper Yenisei Grayling (Thymallus svetovidovi) and the Mongolian Grayling (Thymallus brevirostris) and Clarification of Their Ranges

Grayling samples collected in tributaries of the Great Yenisei River and the Black Irtysh River were analyzed and compared with Mongolian graylings ( T. brevirostris ) from the Khovd River on the basis of two mtDNA fragments: CO1 and CR . The haplotypes of graylings inhabiting the Black Irtysh River...

Description
Summary:Grayling samples collected in tributaries of the Great Yenisei River and the Black Irtysh River were analyzed and compared with Mongolian graylings ( T. brevirostris ) from the Khovd River on the basis of two mtDNA fragments: CO1 and CR . The haplotypes of graylings inhabiting the Black Irtysh River indicate that they belong to the Mongolian species T. brevirostris . The analysis showed that the Upper Yenisei grayling ( T. svetovidovi ) inhabiting tributaries of the Great Yenisei River features a lower genetic diversity compared to the Mongolian grayling.
