Abstract excerpt
The benthic pennate diatom Nitzschia navis-varingica, known for producing domoic acid (DA) and its isomers, is widely distributed in the Western Pacific (WP) region. To investigate the genetic differentiation and gene flow patterns among the populations in the WP, the genetic diversity of 354 strains of N. navis-varingica was analysed using two nuclear-encoded rDNA loci: the large subunit rDNA (LSU rDNA) and the...
