Genetic diversities of MT-ND3 and MT-ND4L genes are associated with high-altitude adaptation

Mitochondria can produce the energy currency of the cell through respiration which would be affected by variation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We sequenced MT-ND3 and MT-ND4L genes in 51 Tibetan yaks, 59 Tibetan cattle, and 60 Holstein-Friesian. And the results showed that the SNPs (m.9893 A > G...
