Riverine effects on mitochondrial structure of Bornean orang‐utans (Pongo pygmaeus) at two spatial scales

Abstract: We examined mitochondrial DNA control region sequences of 73 Kinabatangan orangutans to test the hypothesis that the phylogeographical structure of the Bornean orangutan is influenced by riverine barriers. The Lower Kinabatangan Wildlife Sanctuary contains one of the most northern populations of orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus) on Borneo and is bisected by the Kinabatangan River, the longest river in Sabah. Orang-utan samples on either side of the river were strongly differentiated with a high Phi(ST) value of 0.40… Show more

“…In both cases, very recent common ancestry could explain the incomplete mtDNA lineage sorting. For North Kinabatangan (NK) and SK, Jalil et al (27) proposed an expansion from a recent common refugium further west in Mount Kinabalu, as posited for other Bornean species (46,47,49). DV, with its low haplotype diversity, might also be the result of a recent range expansion.…”

“…We also sequenced low DNA quantity samples from GP (n = 20), where individual identification was done through long-term observational data. Additionally, haplotypes for individuals from SK (n = 38) and NK (n = 35) were from Jalil et al (27) (GenBank accession numbers EU547189-EU547201). Finally, we resequenced 21 extracts from the Bornean samples in Warren et al (17) to cover the same region of mtDNA (Table S2).…”

“…In chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes (Blumenbach, 1775), the Sanaga River in Cameroon geographically separates two subspecies (Gonder et al 1997(Gonder et al , 2006. The phylogeographical population structure of the orangutan, Pongo pygmaeus (Linnaeus, 1760) is bisected by the Kinabatangan River, Borneo (Jalil et al 2008). Consequently, geographical isolations by large rivers would be predictable to trigger the allopatric speciation (e.g.…”
