Sequence variation data of the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region of the captive Malayan Gaur ().

This article contains data of the sequence variation in the mitochondrial DNA D-loop region of the Malayan gaur (), locally known as the seladang, from two captive centers. Thirty fecal samples of Malayan gaur were collected from Jenderak Selatan Wildlife Conservation Center (Pahang) and the Sungkai Wildlife Reserve (Perak) for DNA extraction and amplification with polymerase chain reactions. DNA sequences were then analyzed using neighbor joining (NJ) and maximum parsimony (MP) methods.
