Heredity - 1 Dec 2003
Sigurgíslason H, Arnason E
Abstract excerpt
Variation in a 250 base pair (bp) fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome b (cyt b) has been used extensively for population studies in Atlantic cod Gadus morhua. To study the shape of the gene genealogy and the nature of the polymorphism, sequences of another region of the cyt b gene and the TP intergenic spacer were added, making a total of 566 bp from 74 cod from the Faroe Islands. A total of 44 segregating...
