Genetic Markers for Studying the Current Distribution Area and Population Str…

Three types of genetic markers (restriction fragments of cytochrome b mtDNA gene, SSR and ISSR)were proposed for the study of genetic variability in the sable Martes zibellina within its geographic range. mtDNA haplotypes of different subspecies of the sable were described. Haplotypes of the eastern sable Martes zibellina princeps, which was introduced to Tyumen region in the 20th century,are r…
