Population structure of long-finned pilot whales in the North Atlantic: a correlation with sea surface temperature?

Molecular ecology - 1 Jul 2000

Abstract excerpt

The long-finned pilot whale, Globicephala melas, is a social, pelagic odontocete distributed widely in the cold temperate waters of the North Atlantic. Despite genetic, morphometric, physiological and observational studies, it remains unclear whether any population substructure exists. We have used eight highly polymorphic microsatellite loci to analyse samples from four disparate sampling sites: USA East Coast...
