Contrasting population structure from nuclear intron sequences and mtDNA of humpback whales.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 May 1994

Palumbi S R, Baker C S

Abstract excerpt

Powerful analyses of population structure require information from multiple genetic loci. To help develop a molecular toolbox for obtaining this information, we have designed universal oligonucleotide primers that span conserved intron-exon junctions in a wide variety of animal phyla. We test the...
