Genomic analyses show extremely perilous conservation status of African and Asiatic cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus)

Abstract: † We deeply regret the passing of our esteemed colleague Paul Botriell during the course of the project.

“…For example, A. j. raineyi and A. j. jubatus have recently been merged into a single subspecies, namely A. j. jubatus, based on mtDNA data (Kitchener et al, 2017). Yet, this nding does not t recent evidence obtained from genome-wide SNP data (Prost et al, 2022), raising questions about the validity of mtDNA markers for subspecies assignment in cheetahs. In their study, Prost et al (2022) suggest incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) or mitochondrial capture (MC) as possible reasons for the presence of two mitochondrial haplogroups in East African cheetahs, one of which is shared with the Southern African subspecies, A. j. jubatus.…”

ILS is the retention of two or more alleles originating from an ancestral population in one or two populations after divergence/ speciation (Hahn, 2019).…”
