Median-joining network for domestic Bactrian camel population haplotypes from China, Mongolia, Russia, Iran, and Kazakhstan. The areas of the circles were proportional to the haplotype frequencies. Haplotypes of each population from different geographic regions, such as China, Mongolia, Iran, and Kazakhstan, did not cluster together according to their geographic regions.
