Abstract
Our findings reveal that the western black crested gibbon (Nomascus concolor) did not divide into different subspecies, and the relatively low level of genetic diversity emphasizes the importance of monitoring this indicator for vulnerable wildlife. Meanwhile, phylogeographic analysis of the Nomascus genus shows a north-to-south trend of ancestral geographic distribution.
期刊介绍:
The official journal of the International Society of Zoological Sciences focuses on zoology as an integrative discipline encompassing all aspects of animal life. It presents a broader perspective of many levels of zoological inquiry, both spatial and temporal, and encourages cooperation between zoology and other disciplines including, but not limited to, physics, computer science, social science, ethics, teaching, paleontology, molecular biology, physiology, behavior, ecology and the built environment. It also looks at the animal-human interaction through exploring animal-plant interactions, microbe/pathogen effects and global changes on the environment and human society.
Integrative topics of greatest interest to INZ include:
(1) Animals & climate change
(2) Animals & pollution
(3) Animals & infectious diseases
(4) Animals & biological invasions
(5) Animal-plant interactions
(6) Zoogeography & paleontology
(7) Neurons, genes & behavior
(8) Molecular ecology & evolution
(9) Physiological adaptations
