Signals of positive selection in mitochondrial protein‐coding genes of woolly mammoth: Adaptation to extreme environments?

The mammoths originated in warm and equatorial Africa and later colonized cold and high‐latitude environments. Studies on nuclear genes suggest that woolly mammoth had evolved genetic variations involved in processes relevant to cold tolerance, including lipid metabolism and thermogenesis, and adapt...
