title: [Intraspecific structure of sable Martes zibellina inferred from nucleotide variation of the mitochondrial DNA cytochrome b gene].
abstract: A fragment of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome b gene was sequences in sable from Magadan oblast, Khabarovsk krai, and Kamchatka. Using phylogenetic analysis, the presence of two clusters (A and BC), with the divergence value of 1.4%, was demonstrated. Analysis of the cytochrome b gene median networks indicated that split of the ancestral population took place in early Pleistocene (about one Myr ago), while expansion of its more young phylogenetic group A occurred in late Pleistocene, about 120,000 years ago.
