Mitochondrial haplotype diversity in 27 populations of brown trout, Salmo trutta L., in Austria was investigated by sequencing the 5' end of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region.

It is argued that the presence of these haplotypes in Austria primarily reflects introgression stemming from the...
