Abstract excerpt

The genetic population structure of hooded seal, Cystophora cristata, was examined by electrophoretic analysis of allozymes and with multilocus DNA fingerprinting. Samples were collected in the Jan Mayen area and off Newfoundland. Allele products were resolved by isoelectric focusing. Only five o...
