Haplotype networks for the three walrus subspecies. (A) Map depicting the modern ranges of O. r. rosmarus divergens and O. r. rosmarus. (B) Median-joining network based on the longest possible alignment (644 bp, n = 123). Node radii are proportional to the number of haplotypes, and branch lengths are proportional to the number of nucleotide differences separating two haplotypes. (C) Median-joining network based on a shorter alignment that also includes aDNA samples (196 bp, n = 149). Entirely purple nodes represent ancient haplotypes that are extinct or unobserved among modern samples.
