Several recent studies have suggested past gene flow between the Przewalski's horse and modern domestic horse and questioned the wild origin of the Przewalski's horse. Mitochondrial DNA has placed representatives of the Przewalski's horse into three among the eighteen haplogroups detected from the modern horse. Of these, two haplogroups have so far been found exclusively in the Przewalski's horse, while the one shared with the domestic horse includes captive individuals that have uncertain pedigrees. We recently found five domestic horse individuals of North European horse breeds to carry a mitochondrial haplogroup that was previously confined only to the Przewalski's horse. These individuals were sequenced for 6039 bp of mitochondrial DNA and used, together with domestic and Przewalski's horse sequences presenting all horse haplogroups, to examine the phylogenetic relationships and to date the divergence time between Przewalski's and domestic horse clusters within this haplogroup. The divergence was dated to have likely occurred about 13,300–11,400 years ago, which coincides with the time of the Younger Dryas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
