There are three described subspecies of fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus): B. p. physalus Linnaeus, 1758 in the Northern Hemisphere, B. p. quoyi Fischer, 1829 in the Southern Hemisphere, and a recently described pygmy form, B. p. patachonica Burmeister, 1865. The discrete distribution in the North...

Summary: | There are three described subspecies of fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus): B. p. physalus Linnaeus, 1758 in the Northern Hemisphere, B. p. quoyi Fischer, 1829 in the Southern Hemisphere, and a recently described pygmy form, B. p. patachonica Burmeister, 1865. The discrete distribution in the North Pacific and North Atlantic raises the question of whether a single Northern Hemisphere subspecies is valid. We assess phylogenetic patterns using ~16 K base pairs of the complete mitogenome for 154 fin whales from the North Pacific, North Atlantic - including the Mediterranean Sea - and Southern Hemisphere. A Bayesian tree of the resulting 136 haplotypes revealed several well-supported clades representing each ocean basin, with no haplotypes shared among ocean basins. The North Atlantic haplotypes (n = 12) form a sister clade to those from the Southern Hemisphere (n = 42). The estimated time to most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) for this Atlantic/Southern Hemisphere clade and 81 of the 97 samples from the North ... : CDS data set - BEAST inputcds.sasaki.strict.xmlMITO data set - BEAST inputmito.sasaki.strict.xmlCDS data set - TREES outputcds.sasaki.strict.treesMITO data set - TREES outputmito.sasaki.strict.treesCDS data set - LOG outputcds.sasaki.strict.logMITO data set - LOG outputmito.sasaki.strict.logBalaenoptera physalus sample informationBphy sample info.csvCDS data set - annotated treecds.sasaki.strict.anno.treMITO data set - annotated treemito.sasaki.strict.anno.tre ... |
