Mitotypical Peculiarities of the Population of Moose Alces alces of Southeastern West Siberia.

Based on the structure of the D-loop control region of mitochondrial DNA, the genetic diversity of moose of West Siberia was evaluated and their placement within the structure of current species population was determined. It was noted that the values of genetic diversity exceed the values of analogous indices obtained for western groups of the species. Three haplogroups were identified in the population structure: European- Ural, West Siberian, and American.
