Fig. 2

Phylogenetic relationship and assessment of divergence time in Indian rhino populations. The left pane shows the clustering of three maternal clades of West Bengal samples (green), Uttar Pradesh (blue) and Assam (red). Javan rhino sequence was used as outgroup. The posterior probability values (≥ 0.9) are shown in bold. The right pane indicates the divergence of Indian rhinos ~ 0.95 Mya, where the Assam population coalesce first (~ 0.19 Mya), followed by divergence of West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh (0.06–0.05 Mya). Node-specific ages are marked (with posterior probability values ≥ 0.9). The major corroborating paleobiogeographical events are presented above
