Hrincevich A W, Foltz D W
Abstract excerpt
A 551-bp region of a PCR product containing the putative mitochondrial control region and flanking sequences was analyzed for sequence variation among 19 sea stars representing 10 previously described PCR-RFLP haplotypes within a cryptic species complex (Leptasterias spp.). Most (97%) of the sequence variation was interhaplotypic rather than intrahaplotypic, which greatly reduced the utility of sequence...
