Ancient DNA analyses reveal high mitochondrial DNA sequence diversity and parallel morphological evolution of late pleistocene cave bears
Cave bears (Ursus spelaeus) existed in Europe and western Asia until the end of the last
glaciation some 10,000 years ago. To investigate the genetic diversity, population history …
